Dry Oaky Eruption.
The origin of Flor de Caña dates back to 1890 at the base of Nicaragua’s most active volcano, the San Cristobal. The fertility of its soil, the volcanic climate to which the barrels are exposed during the aging process and the enriched volcanic water contribute in creating a singularly smooth and deliciously balanced Rum.
Flor de Caña is naturally aged in small white oak bourbon barrels sealed with plantain leaves, producing a distinguished and elegant Rum with tropical notes. This uninterrupted aging process gives the Rum its remarkable amber color and rich flavor without the aid of accelerants, unnatural additives and with zero sugar content.
This is a stunning, 18-year-old brilliant amber ultra-premium Rum that is full-bodied, with a rich complexity of flavors and a smooth finish that lingers on the palate. Almost two decades go into its production, and the tradition and artisanal excellence behind it can be savored in every drop. "Among the Finest Products in the World" by the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

A little bit of etymology; nobody really knows where the word Rum comes from. Most popular suggestions are: Rum (the Romani word for potent), Rumbullion (an uproar), Saccharum (sugar in Latin), Rummer (a Dutch drinking glass).

Ratings & Reviews
Matt,
This one took some time for me to appreciate, but what a delicious rum. I love that it's free of color and flavor additives. It's a pure/dry rum with an incredible amount of depth. On the palate it's pure oak with a hint of caramel and vanilla. With a drop of water or a small ice cube, delicious toasted banana and vanilla notes come out. A pure sipping rum that bourbon and scotch lovers could easily get into.
Flor,
One of the best rums I have tried! Great for enjoying it on the rocks or just neat!
guest,
Amazing! I usually drink it neat with an ice cube and orange peel. Love it!
Fernanda,
