Rum Santiago de Cuba Añejo (Cuba)

Established back in 2002 with its sole purpose to bring the most premium of Cuban rums;

More than any other Cuban rum, Ron Santiago de Cuba has remained true to its origins, which is why it is considered by most Cubans to be the best premium rum in Cuba. Made from sugarcane molasses grown in the lush, fertile soil and warm microclimate of the Sierra Maestra basin and then matured in the oldest oak barrels in Cuba, dating back in the early of the 20th Century , Ron Santiago de Cuba prides itself on being a unique and authentic Cuban treasure. Named after the vibrant city at the heart of the region where the process of light rum was invented, Santiago de Cuba is widely known as ‘la cuna del ron ligero’; the cradle of light rum.

Following the Cuban revolution in 1959, the rum making heritage of the Sierra Maestra region was consolidated with the nationalisation of all rum industries, allowing Ron Santiago de Cuba (before named in Cuba Matusalem) to draw upon an unrivalled heritage and expertise as makers of high quality, authentically Cuban rum. Its distinct flavour and character are due to its unique locality and Cuban cultural heritage that dates back in the founding of the city itself. The launch of Ron Santiago de Cuba gives consumers the opportunity to discover the depth and diversity to Cuban rum, history, culture and cuisine. Ron Santiago de Cuba is a sophisticated taste of ‘the real Cuba’; it offers a deeper sense of the true nature and quality of Cuban rum.

The Anejo is aged using the Spanish Solera system, for up to 5 years, in the oldest oak casks in Cuba, which date back to the 1920's.
