Ron Carúpano Celebrates International Rum Day with Global Campaign: “Taste the Exceptional”

As the warm Caribbean sun sets on the horizon, casting a golden glow across Venezuela’s lush landscapes, Ron Carúpano prepares to usher in International Rum Day with a celebration that transcends borders. This August, the renowned symbol of Venezuelan excellence invites rum aficionados worldwide to embark on a sensory journey through its “Taste the Exceptional” campaign.

For over 260 years, Ron Carúpano has been more than just a rum; it’s been a cultural touchstone, a warm companion to gatherings, and a smooth partner to conversations. Each amber drop tells a story of passion, craftsmanship, and the rich tapestry of Venezuelan heritage. What makes this rum truly exceptional?

Imagine a place where nature conspires to create perfection. A demanding environment coupled with a unique microclimate provides the ideal conditions for rum production. Add to this the extensive aging of sugar cane alcohol in carefully selected barrels, the purity of spring water, and over two centuries of blending expertise. The result? A rum that doesn’t just meet expectations but shatters them.

The Maestro Behind the Magic

At the heart of Ron Carúpano’s success stands a pioneering figure: Carmen López de Bastidas. As Venezuela’s first certified female Master Blender, Carmen has dedicated 32 years to perfecting the art of rum crafting. Her expertise is not just in blending liquids, but in weaving dreams and memories into every bottle.

“Creating rum is like composing a symphony,” Carmen often says. “Each note must be in perfect harmony, creating a melody that lingers long after the last sip.”
