Rums of Puerto Rico has announced a new partnership with The Rum Lab, signing on as a Silver Sponsor for The Rum Lab’s Q1 and Q2 2026 U.S. events tour, bringing the heritage and innovation of Puerto Rican rum to three major rum destinations.
The 2026 tour will include:
As a Silver Sponsor, Rums of Puerto Rico will offer attendees the opportunity to learn about the island’s rum-making traditions, production standards, and global influence. Puerto Rican distillers will be invited to participate as panel speakers, sharing insights into craftsmanship, innovation, and sustainability within the category.
In select cities, new Puerto Rican rum expressions launching in the U.S. market will also be available for attendees to taste, providing an early look at upcoming releases.
This collaboration reinforces Rums of Puerto Rico’s commitment to education, industry engagement, and expanding awareness of Puerto Rican rum across key U.S. markets.
