Copalli Barrel Rested Rum

About Copalli Barrel Rested Rum

Toledo was the first place in Belize where sugar was produced. It is there, in Punta Gorda, that marine conservationist Todd Robinson and CEO of Belcampo restaurant chain Anya Fernald launched Copalli Rum in 2019. The certified-organic single estate rum is made entirely with ingredients from their own farm. It’s super-clean and simple, made with only 3 ingredients: sugar cane juice, yeast, and rainwater. The sustainable farm is spread over 3,000 acres and surrounded by the rainforest. The Copal Tree Lodge offers a 3-bedroom villa and 16 private suites for guests that can learn about the rainforest, as well as distillation, coffee, and chocolate production.

The entire process is focused on minimizing waste and the impact on the environment. The sugar cane is planted and harvested by hand, then crushed in the mill. The juice then goes to the fermentation tanks and the dried waste goes into a boiler that creates steam for the distillation. Even the waste from the distillation is used to fertilize the fields. Copalli Barrel Rested Rum is distilled in pot stills, using freshly harvested sugarcane juice, rainforest canopy water, and premium selected yeast. It is then aged in American oak barrels for a full bodied and sweet rum. Bottled at 88 proof, it’s perfect to be drunk neat, with a single ice cube or in you favorite rum cocktail.
