This sugar cane plantation (est. 1890) was converted to a rum distillery in 1937. Today, Compania Licoreria de Nicaragua boasts one of the world's largest collections of aged rums. Connoisseurs consider Flor de Caņa superior to Cuban rum and other expensive brands. (Lonely Planet Guide: Central America, 2001) Tasting note: The taste is equal parts sweet richness and firm spirit; at midpalate the silky texture totally beguiles the tastebuds with a blanket of molasses. An ideal after-dinner sipping rum. Superb. Highly recommended. Score - 90-95. (Wine Enthusiast, April 2001) |
