Zacapa Rum

Zacapa Rum is considered one of the best rums in the world. It is stored at 2,300 meters above sea level in the "House over the Clouds", where the cool mountain climate slows down the maturation process and gives the rum time to rest and develop its character. Zacapa uses a unique "Sistema Solera" process based on a centuries-old Spanish method of Sherry production that allows rum of different ages to be stored in different barrels that were previously used to produce American whiskies, sweet Sherries and high-quality Pedro Ximenez wines. This process is complemented by professional craftsmanship and dedication and expertly overseen by master blender Lorena Vasquez.
The tropical climate and volcanic ash soil produce high-quality sugar cane. Unlike other rums made from molasses, Zacapa is made from the concentrate of the first sugar cane pressing, the so-called "virgin sugar cane honey," which forms the basis for its award-winning flavor.
