BARACA PRESTIGE DISTILLERIES NV
Aruba
In 2017, the 4 Sydow brothers (Hans, Franz, Erick and Klaus) and a very dear friend Alfonso Mora had the idea of producing and comercialize a premium and super premium sipping rum inspired in Aruba.
Being old Venezuelan immigrants on the island, they identify in Arubas mix of cultures, an inspiration to create a rum based on the One Happy spirit of the Island. A mix of cultures so unique that have given birth to a language made by the fusion of African, Spanish, Portuguese, English, Dutch and words of the Arawak natives who inhabited the area before the conquest.
