Five generations later, the company continues in the Brugal family, direct descendants of Andrés are the Roneros Masters who run the company today. After introducing his first rum in 1888, which would mark the beginning of a long family tradition, Andrés would continue to expand the company and its offer, in 1920 he created the first aged rum aged in the Dominican Republic. In 1952 the aged Brugal rum was created and in 1976 the first premium rum of the Dominican Republic, Extra Viejo.
