Central America > Costa Rica

Costa Rica, a paradise of lush rainforests, towering volcanoes like Arenal, and pristine beaches, boasts a recent rum tradition dating back to the 1980s. Arenal’s volcanic ash enriches the soil, perfect for sugarcane cultivation. Costa Rican rum uses both molasses and fresh sugarcane juice, and sometimes incorporating cane honey. Distilleries here experiment with column distillation and Solera aging in unique casks like American and Scotch whisky barrels, creating a diverse range of rums to discover.
