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.

Rum is why we measure alcohol proof. To make sure Rum wasn’t watered down, it had to be ‘proven’ by soaking gunpowder with it. If it was ‘overproof’ (higher than 57.15 % vol.), then the gunpowder would ignite, if it wouldn’t, it was ‘underproof’.
Tasting Notes
Appearance / Color
Bright mahogany brown.
Smell / Nose / Aroma
Let it breathe. Full of rich oak spice, some zesty orange peel, dark brown sugars, dark caramel toffee and nutmeg. Also hints of cinnamon, vanilla and anise.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
Dry and spicy, with layers of cocoa, dark caramel and spice. A strong oak presence that starts to dominate after a while.
Finish
Long, smooth and clean. Presence of walnut, dark chocolate. Oaky, leathery, smokey steals the polish from the finish.
Comment
The lack of heavy molasses sweetness makes this Rum special.

Ratings & Reviews
Mat,
I though this smelled very fresh and citrusy, with loads of lemon notes and some vanilla.
Quite fruity on the palate too but this just didn't really impress. Much better rums out there at this price point.
Patrick,
My single favorite rum. I love this one so much. a perfect sipping rum and because of the price you're not bothered mixing it in a little cola with alot of lime. So so very good for such an amazing prize. I have a bottle opened and unopened always.
Rabecka,
Never makes a bad drink and never leaves sorry in the morning. Easy going down on the rocks too
Harlan,
One of the best rums I have tasted
Colin,
Smells and tastes like straight rubbing alcohol. Not good.
