El Ron Prohibido XO Single Barrel Mexican Rum 40% Vol. 0.7 l is an exclusive premium bottling that combines Mexican rum tradition with exceptional cask maturation. Its name translates as ‘The Forbidden Rum’ and evokes the eventful history of the so-called Chinguirito, a rum speciality whose production and consumption were banned by the Spanish colonial authorities until 1796. This historical connection makes El Ron Prohibido one of Mexico’s most fascinating rum brands to this day. The high-quality 0.7 l bottle is aimed at discerning connoisseurs who appreciate exceptional rums with a rich history and a complex flavour profile.


The XO Single Barrel is produced using the traditional Solera method and is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon casks made from American white oak and carefully selected wine casks. This unique blend of casks lends the rum its remarkable depth, elegance and complexity. At 40% ABV, this premium Mexican rum is harmonious, full-bodied and well-balanced. The combination of Solera ageing, selected cask types and careful blending results in a rum full of character that impressively reflects Mexico’s rich rum-making tradition.
