About Ron Millonario
In 1904, in northern Peru, the Hacienda Agrícola de Chiclayo was founded in Chiclayo, a small settlement between the sea and the mountains known as the ‘city of friendship.
Here, a group of farmers united to trade their sugar, and to this purpose they built, at great personal sacrifice, a small refinery. The Hacienda was purchased in 1922, the family of Peruvian landowners Piera de Castillo, with Don Rolando at the helm. In 1950, some years after the purchase of a Scottish column still, Ron Millonario was officially born.
The rum was the fruit of hard work, but since few could afford to sample it, it acquired the name “por los millonarios”, in acknowledgement of that exclusive club of individuals wealthy enough to buy the spirit and enjoy its unique charm.
In search of new products, Fabio Rossi landed in Peru in 2004, and discovered a warm, rich product that was a pleasure to drink. He had stumbled upon a genuine treasure of Peru.
ense", the Cincuenta is a higher strength versino of the 10th Anniversary Reserva. It is bottled at 50% ABV versus the 40% of the Reserva, but beyond that it is similar in makeup. The Cincuenta is a combination of rums mostly matured in ex-Bourbon plus some older stock aged in ex-Sherry casks.

Producer Tasting Note
"It echoes the sweet fruits, vanilla and chocolate of the Standard 10 Aniversario Reserva, but much more intense and concentrated. It has a richer mouthfeel, almost tactile, and a more robust caress on the tongue and palate. The higher strength accentuates the drier and winey flavours from the sherry casks too.
The result is something in-between the easy freshness of the 10 Aniversario Reserva and the sweeter and darker complexity of the Solera 15."
