Distillery: Licorera Zacapaneca was born in the eastern part of Guatemala, in Zacapa. Founded in 1940 by 3 local families, Girón, Estrada and Gordillo, production was entrusted from the beginning to a rum expert from Spain, Dr. Burgaleta. Zacapa rums are created from pure sugar cane juice, a plant grown on the volcanic soils of the southern part of the country. In the fermentation process, which lasts 5 days, a yeast extracted from pineapple, belonging to a proprietary strain, is used in order to guarantee a singular and constant taste over time. The aging process then takes place on the plateaus of the city of Quetzaltenango, at an altitude of 2300 meters above sea level, in the so-called "House above the Clouds": this place, chosen by the winery's master blender, Lorena Vasquez, is characterized by a cool climate which favors slow aging in white oak barrels, previously used for Bourbon whiskey and Sherry, and handcrafted by renowned artisans. Finally, Zacapa rums are created with the solera method: the assembly of barrels of different vintages and characteristics allows us to obtain rums for sale online of excellent quality and unmistakable taste.
