Ron del Barrilito 2 Star rum is first blended and then aged for at least 3 years. The rum has been produced in Bayam?n Puerto Rico since 1804 by the Fern?ndez family, making it the oldest rum manufacturer in Puerto Rico. In 1942 a single barrel of Ron del Barrilito rum was set aside called the 'Freedom Barrel.' The barrel will be opened in Bayam?n town square for all to share when Puerto Rico gains its independence.
