The rum is also on sale at the Dufry duty-free shops at Las Americas Airport and will soon be available throughout the Dominican Republic, as well as in international markets, starting with Puerto Rico, New York, Miami and Spain.
With the purpose of continuing to promote the local industry and betting on the highest quality products, Pura Sangre Music, Dufry Dominicana and the liquor company J&J Spirits, presented at the Cibao International Airport the new rum brand called “Legado El Caballo Mayor” (The Great Horse Legacy), an Ultra Premium rum that exalts the career and work of the legendary merenguero Johnny Ventura made entirely by hand by artisans of the Dominican Republic.
The collector’s gift made to remember the Caballo, which is also available at the duty-free shops at Las Americas International Airport, is packaged in a fine cognac-style bottle, with a deep embossed metallic label, a cork and an emblematic neck with Johnny Ventura’s signature engraved on it. It is aged in American oak barrels and has characteristic elements such as: orange amber color, exquisite flavor that lingers on the palate, hints of vanilla and chocolate, pleasant aftertaste and outstanding smoothness.
Jandy and Juan José Ventura were present during an event held in the duty-free shop area of the Cibao International Airport as well as María Bouche, General Manager of Dufry Dominicana and Jack Astacio, CEO of J&J Spirits and media representatives.

The product will soon be available throughout the Dominican Republic, as well as on international markets, starting with Puerto Rico, New York, Miami and Spain”, said Jack Astacio, CEO of J&J Spirits.
