History
Unlike most rums, Dominican Rum gives more importance to its smoothness, thus becoming a very different rum, genuinely unique, thanks to an original and natural process of distillation and to its aging which is done in special American white oak kegs.
Historically, the most legitimate family name of Dominican Rum is Bermúdez. According to the chronical reports of the time, one of Christopher Columbus' first companions on his trips to the New World was Don Diego Bermúdez, who brought the sugar cane from which to extract alcohol, the basic ingredient in the processing of rum.
The House of Bermúdez is an almost a century and a half old tradition in the elaboration of rum of the highest quality. Its origin goes back to the year 1852, when Don Erasmo Bermúdez created the formula for the "Amargo Panacea", a rum to be drunk as an appetizer and which quickly became famous.
Thus, from the primitive laboratory of Don Erasmo, the first Dominican spirited drink of well known name was born, becoming also the origin of the first industry established in the then recently created Dominican Republic.
Until year 1927, the Company was directed by Don Armando Bermúdez, who transformed it into a nation wide industry.
Later, as it became a corporation, its first Administrator was Domingo O. Bermúdez, under whose direction the company reached its status of national institution.
