About Ron Carupano in Connecticut

Connecticut’s premium spirits market is one of the most refined in New England, a consumer base shaped by proximity to New York City, a strong fine dining culture, and an increasingly sophisticated approach to rum as a category. Ron Carupano, Venezuela’s most awarded premium rum, is now available at one authorized specialty retailer in Connecticut, giving the state’s rum enthusiasts direct access to the full additive-free Venezuelan rum lineup.

The eight Ron Carupano expressions span the complete premium rum spectrum: the ultra-premium Legendario and three-time Gold Medal Reserva Privada, the X.O. and vintage Reserve 1996 for gifting, the limited-edition Reserva Limitada and Reserva Exclusiva for collectors, the clear-aged Cristalino, and the classic Reserva Especial. Each expression is produced at the historic Carupano distillery in Venezuela, in continuous operation since 1763, with a strict zero-additive policy: no added sugar, no caramel color, no flavor corrections.

In a market that increasingly rewards provenance and production transparency, Ron Carupano’s commitment makes it one of the best rums available in Connecticut. Three consecutive Gold Medals (2024, 2025, 2026) from independent international competitions confirm it. Browse the authorized Connecticut retailer below.
