Botran 1893 Sistema Solera is a prestigious Guatemalan rum distilled from molasses using a Column Still at the Industrias Licoreras de Guatemala distillery. This exceptional rum acquires its unique character and maturity in the highlands of Guatemala, where it is aged for up to 18 years in a solera system. The solera aging process involves blending and maturing several rums in American oak barrels that previously contained sherry and port wine, resulting in a complex and sophisticated flavor profile.
The aroma of Botran 1893 Sistema Solera is characterized by notes of dried fruit, vanilla, caramel, tobacco, earthy undertones, and a touch of fruitiness that some users find comparable to Zacapa, but less sweet. On the palate, you can expect a harmonious mix of woody, caramel, vanilla, sweet, and toffee flavors, coupled with a dry and slightly tannic finish that includes hints of coconut, tobacco, vanilla, and a touch of orange.
Botran takes pride in ensuring that the production of their rum is 100% Guatemalan, from the land to the glass. In 2019, they achieved the distinction of being recognized as the first sustainable rum in the world by the International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC). This certification attests that their entire production cycle, from the sugarcane fields to bottling, respects biodiversity, the environment, and human rights.
This exquisite assemblage of rums from Guatemala is aged in four types of casks: Bourbon, Bourbon rebrule, Sherry, and Porto, and then elevated in aging cellars located at an altitude of 2300 meters, which intensifies the aging process and enhances its aromas. The result is a complex and broadly aromatic rum with a nose that develops sweet notes of vanilla and blond tobacco, an oily mouthfeel that becomes more tannic, marked by wood and vanilla, and a long and persistent finish that remains aromatic to the end.
