In 1871 Pedro Fernandez, after completing his studies in France, returned to his native Hacienda Santa Ana, in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, with the idea of creating a rum with a style similar to that of the best French brandies and cognacs. In fact, originally, in full French style, his rum was consumed only by his family and guests, who served themselves directly from the cask, so it was that fond drinkers christened it "Ron del Barrilito."
Put on the market in 1880, since that date the Fernandez family has been using the same secret formula and aging method to produce a unique sugar cane distillate beloved by generations of enthusiasts. Ron del Barrilito is a premium artisanal rum recognized by many experts as one of the best rums in the world, often compared to the finest and most elegant French cognacs. Hacienda Santa Ana stands within the sugarcane plantations of the Fernandez family, which has made a love of rum and simplicity the company's philosophy.
Even today, all stages of processing are handed down from father to son and supervised by the Fernandez family, which selects for the Ron version of Barrilito 2 Stars the best distillates to blend, aged around 3 years in small oak barrels.
