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 (usually) comes from molasses; the sweet and syrupy residue left behind after sugar crystals are extracted from sugar cane juice. Molasses is over 50% sugar, but it also contains significant amounts of minerals and other trace elements, which can contribute to the final flavour.
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
Valentin,
Caramel and a hint of tropical fruits on the nose, dry and a little spicy on the tongue with a not very lasting finish. Pretty decent but nothing exceptional in any way
Tyler,
At the 18’s price point, this is the best rum by flor de Cana. The 25 has more flavor but it’s over priced. It’s just not a $100 a bottle better rum! Go with the 18, it’s delicious and so smooth.
Danny,
Very complex. Excellent straight or on the rocks.
Marvin,
Sweet but enough bite to drink alone. No ice? No problem.
Richard,
I love this rum. Only slightly sweet with a touch of cinnamon. Half a shot every night is a perfect way to end the day.
