Premium rum in Tampa

Tampa’s spirits scene has undergone a remarkable transformation, the city’s dining and nightlife culture now demands the same quality from its premium rum shelf that it expects from every other top-shelf spirits category. Ron Carupano, Venezuela’s most awarded premium rum, is now available at one authorized specialty retailer in Tampa, giving the city’s rum enthusiasts and bar professionals direct access to the full additive-free Venezuelan rum lineup.

The eight Ron Carupano expressions represent the complete premium rum portfolio: the ultra-premium Legendario and three-time Gold Medal Reserva Privada for serious sipping occasions, the X.O. and vintage Reserve 1996 for Tampa’s gifting market, the limited-release Reserva Limitada and Reserva Exclusiva for collectors, the clear barrel-aged Cristalino for Tampa’s creative cocktail programs, and the classic Reserva Especial for everyday Venezuelan rum. Every bottle is produced at the historic Carupano distillery in Venezuela, in continuous operation since 1763, with an uncompromising zero-additive policy: no added sugar, no caramel color, no flavor corrections.

Three consecutive Gold Medals from independent international competitions (2024, 2025, 2026) confirm what Tampa’s spirits professionals are discovering. Ron Carupano is among the best rums available anywhere in Florida. Browse the authorized Tampa retailer below and call ahead to confirm stock of specific expressions.
