RUM

Here, at the EC Proof online store, we believe that rum is one of the greatest liquors ever invented. The rum story goes so far back that the community still can’t decide whether it first appeared in ancient India or China. The one thing we do know, however, is that sugarcane was fermented for liquor centuries ago. The first official rum distillation took place in 1620 in the Caribbean, the land of sugarcane. The first North American rum distillery opened its doors in 1664, almost 40 years later, in what is now Staten Island. On our shelves, you can find some of the best rum brands in the country, and most of them come from the Caribbean.

Here’s a list of all of our best rum brands you can find in the store:

The story of the best rum in the world

We’re proud to say that we have several options at our disposal of the best rum in the world, Diplomatico. You can check them out in the list above.

>The Diplomatico story is an enchanting one, and it begins in 1959 in the land of grace, Venezuela. That year the distillery was opened by Licorerias Unidas S.A. (LUSA), with Seagram’s International as the main shareholder, which at the time was one of the biggest liquor companies in the world. By 2002, the company was up for sale, including the distillery that produced the Diplomatico brand. Venezuelan entrepreneurs bought the company and turned it into one of the largest liquor companies in the country.

The passion and the vision of Don Juancho are the reasons that over a million people around the globe today can enjoy a glass of Diplomatico rum. The legend says that he was an artist when it came to liquor and that his personal reserves were equivalent to the ones of the Ambassador.

Today, the Diplomatico rum is exported in over 70 countries worldwide, and it is geographically protected, under the protected denomination of origin clause. Diplomatico is produced in Anejo, Reserva, Reserva Exclusiva, Blanco, Single Vintage and Ambassador. Lucky for you, we have each of those bottles in our store.

The best rum alcohol in Singapore

As we said in the beginning, we love rum, which is why we want to make it possible for our clients in Singapore to taste the best rum alcohol. Once upon a time, rum held even bigger value than money, granted it was for the sailors, but it’s impressive nonetheless. In the 18th century, they were often paid in rum. Furthermore, rum was also used as a beauty product for its ability to clean the hair and strengthen its roots.

The history of rum is vibrant and rich, just as much as the taste of the spirit itself. The most refreshing cocktail in the world, the Mojito is made with rum, and that tells you everything you need to know about this liquor. Even though gin is typically the go-to spirit for most cocktails, rum is the main ingredient in the best ones.

If you’re thinking about celebrating the 16th of August, the National Rum Day, then you should most definitely do it with a bottle of the best rum Singapore has to offer.
