La Casa del Rum
As is well known all over the world, we Italians like to drink and eat well, and this increasingly applies to rum too. It is not by chance that Italy is the country where the Selezionatori (Selectors) were born: spirit experts that select the best distillates and then attend to their bottling themselves. The first pioneering Selectors began with whisky, then over the last decades they have entered the rum world. Now, also thanks to their work, the custom of drinking a glass of good rum after a good dinner at the restaurant, or at the cafe, or even at home with friends is spreading rapidly. And it is spreading not only in Italy, of course, but all over Europe and the world.
We, La Casa del Rum (The House of Rum), want to move along this path, looking for, selecting and bottling quality rums for a niche market that wants to drink better: adult consumers willing to spend their money on premium rums, but with something really good inside the bottle.
Moreover, we have two specific focuses: blending and price.
Blending. We love the subtle art of rum blending. The exciting quest for different rums to work with. The tests and trials, even the errors. Till the ever magic moment when from the mixing of different rums a completely new, original product is born. Not a simple sum of its components, but something different and far superior.
Price. We think that a good rum does not necessarily have to be too expensive. We do not waste money on advertising, gadgets and so on. Therefore we can offer premium rums to our consumers at a price comparable to the mass market products which pretend to have a similar quality.
After some years of experience in Italy, this is the first time we have presented our rums abroad. You can judge for yourselves.
