Founded in 1976 in Tulula, Guatemala, by the Botran family, the distillery began producing Rum to celebrate the centenary of the founding of the city of Zacapa, from which it took its name one of the most famous and renowned sugar cane distillates of all time.
These rums are the result of assembly according to the Solera method and have aged in the Quetzaltenango cellar, at 2300 meters above sea level and for this reason also nicknamed "the house above the clouds" by the Master Distiller Lorena Vàsquez.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
