“Botran Rum is a single estate rum which uses two varieties of sugarcane which is harvested on the Pacific south coast of Guatemala. The first press of sugarcane (aka virgin sugar cane honey) is used for distillation rather than the traditional molasses. Botran uses “dynamic aging” which is a variation of the solera process. For the No. 18, rums aged 5-18 years are blended that have matured in American whiskey, sherry, and port casks. Notably, Botran has a Protected Denomination of Origin (PDO) and is certified as a Ron de Guatemala. Botran was relaunched in the US in August 2022 with updated packaging. ” The Distiller
“This spirit is made from rums between five and 18 years, aged in a sequence of American whiskey, Sherry and Port barrels. This aging trifecta results in a nut-brown color and lingering and complex toffee, cocoa and raisin notes. Needs some time to open up for best effect.” Wine Enthusiast 91 Points
