Production and Aging
Ron Brugal undergoes a 5-year aging process. It is made from alcohol produced by fermenting sugarcane molasses, like all Dominican products. Once the sugarcane is harvested, it is transported to the mills where it is squeezed to extract all its juice.
This juice, called molasses, is then transported to the Brugal distillery where it first undergoes fermentation with yeast in large tanks. After this process, it is vacuum distilled and the resulting alcohol undergoes its final stage of production with demineralized water for aging in charred white oak barrels.
