Product description
The history of Flor de Ca ñ a dates back to 1890, when the Italian entrepreneur Alfredo Francisco Pellas Canessa from Genoa decided to settle in Nicaragua and establish a rum factory there.
The Flor de Ca ñ a distillery grew up at the foot of the highest and most active volcano, San Cristóbal. According to the producer, the fertile volcanic soil and microclimate created near the volcano had - and still have - a significant impact on the quality of the sugar cane grown there, and consequently, the quality of the local rum. Today, Flor de Ca ñ a, a distillery that prides itself on its unparalleled care for the environment, is still in the hands of the descendants of its founder. The distillery uses 100% renewable energy, is certified carbon neutral and Fair Trade. No sugar or artificial additives are added to the production of rum. Distillation takes place in an extremely efficient five-column still. The distillate matures in small, 180-litre oak barrels in the tropical climate at the foot of the volcano. Flor de Ca ñ a 25 from the Centenario collection is a carefully composed blend of distillates matured for a quarter of a century in such barrels.
