Flor de Caa 25 Year Rum. Compaa Licorera de Nicaragua, Chichigalpa, Nicaragua the pinnacle expression of the Flor de Caa range, aged a full quarter century at the base of an active volcano without a drop of added sugar, artificial color, or any additive, from Nicaragua’s fifth-generation family estate operating since 1890.

The 25 Year is Flor de Caa’s most prestigious and rarest expression a rum that requires nearly two and a half decades of patience at the Ingenio San Antonio estate in Chichigalpa, where the fertile volcanic soil of the San Cristbal Volcano and the estate’s own spring water shape every aspect of the spirit’s character. As with all Flor de Caa expressions, there is zero added sugar, no artificial color, and no additives of any kind every drop of sweetness, color, and complexity comes from the decades in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels.

By 25 years in Nicaragua’s tropical climate, the rum has taken on an almost oxidized, wine-like quality on the nose distinctly sherry-adjacent, deeply nutty, and remarkably integrated. The Angel’s Share over 25 tropical years has concentrated the remaining spirit into something extraordinarily luxuriant. The result is a rum that invites the same contemplative attention as a great aged Cognac or long-matured Scotch complex enough to occupy your senses for an entire evening, smooth enough to reward patience with every returning sip. Carbon Neutral certified. Fair Trade certified.
