Maestra Ronera Jassil Villanueva Quintana unveils the final chapter of the collection, advancing her innovative Aromatic Cask Toasting technique by selecting coconut, a powerful symbol of Dominican identity and abundance
NEW YORK, Aug. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Brugal, the ultra-premium Dominican rum brand today announces the final installation of its limited-edition series: Colección Visionaria Edición 03, Coconut. A vision born from over 135 years of rum mastery, crafted by fifth generation Maestra Ronera, Jassil Villanueva Quintana, the new offering marks the completion of a three part exploration into the Dominican Republic's heritage with a window into an ingredient deeply rooted in the culture of the island. Colección Visionaria Edición 03 is the last limited-edition release across the Colección Visionaria collection and will be available for $69.99 at select retailers nationwide.
Under the stewardship of Villanueva, Colección Visionaria Edición 03 continues the journey led by the first two releases, toasting French oak casks with Dominican coconuts creating a subtle, elegant character. The result is an attractive, tropical rum, deeply rooted in the brand identity, that maintains the layered complexity of the Colección Visionaria series.
Created in the signature Colección Visionaria style that is layered and complex, the selection of coconut was inspired by how intrinsic this island staple is to the Dominican Republic. Deeply integrated in the region's economy and gastronomy, coconut is part of the Dominican rhythm. From its palms lining the coastline and greeting all that arrive to coconut water serving as an everyday ritual for locals and visitors alike, coconut instantly evokes a sense of place, warmth, and authenticity.
"Colección Visionaria was born from a desire to capture the beauty of my home, through 100% Dominican ingredients," says Jassil Villanueva Quintana. "For this final addition, I chose coconut because it is the rhythm of our island—from the shade of the palms to the ritual of coconut water shared among friends. In Colección Visionaria Edición 03, we have captured that warmth, creating a rum that is as much a tribute to our future as it is to our heritage."
Colección Visionaria Edición 03 is a sophisticated evolution of Brugal's profile and testament to the passion and dedication brought to the craft. The Aromatic Toast Casking technique is the mark of the collection and makes for an exquisite rum that honors Brugal's heritage and that of its homeland.
A perfect addition to the bar cart of rum enthusiasts, Colección Visionaria Edición 03 is adorned with Brugal's iconic protective netting—adapted in navy blue, which has become synonymous with the collection. A true collector's piece, each bottle is carefully sealed by hand, personally signed by Jassil Villanueva Quintana, and complete with the batch number on the label.
