Flor De Cana Rum
Nicaraguan molasses rum, slow aged in oak since 1890.
The story behind Flor De Cana
Flor de Cana comes from Chichigalpa, Nicaragua, where the San Antonio estate sits in the hot Pacific lowlands. The brand traces to 1890, and that tropical heat is the whole story: rum aged here matures faster than rum sitting in a cool European warehouse, so a 4 year old drinks older than the number suggests.
It starts as molasses from estate sugarcane, column distilled, then rests in used American oak bourbon barrels. The aged expressions carry no added sugar, which is why they read dry and oaky rather than syrupy. We have poured these for Long Island customers for decades, and the Gold 4 Year remains one of the most honest values on our rum shelf.
