At Chichigalpa, in the shadow of the San Cristóbal volcano whose ash feeds the cane, the Pellas family has made rum since 1890, launching Flor de Caña in 1937. Everything happens on the estate, from cane to cask, and the spirit, distilled in a five-column still, ages in re-charred bourbon barrels sealed with plantain leaves. Light, dry and elegant. Pellas family's.
