Product description
Zafra rum is produced in Panama, at the Las Cabras distillery. The plant was founded in 1919 as a cane sugar factory.
The plant, forgotten and overgrown with grass, was discovered in the 1990s by Francisco Jose Fernandez Perez and Carlos Esquivel. In an abandoned warehouse, they found a copper distillation column bearing the inscription "Cincinnati 1922". This discovery gave rise to a brand new distillery. There are currently five distillation columns in operation at Las Cabras, and rum is made here from molasses. The primary brand of rum produced in Las Cabras is Grander.
