Ron Colon Salvadoreno Coffee Infused Rum

Amber gold in colour. The bouquet shows notes of rich warming coffee and toasted nutmeg spice. Fresh vanilla and honey bringing a sweeter note. The coffee infusion brings notes of delicate toasted coffee beans and milk chocolate on the palate. The natural process of the beans showcases the fruit forward flavours in the beans and balances with the sticky pineapple and fresh banana notes on the finish.

Ron Colón’s story started in 2018 with two befriended colleagues, Thurman Wise and Pepijn Janssens. With a combined experience of over 20 years working in the spirits industry, Wise and Janssens spent their time traveling around the world introducing brands to emerging markets. In 2018 this job took them on a 22-day, 16-country barhop across Latin America, and it was during this trip that El Salvador ('sivar' in slang) captured their attention. El Salvador is the smallest country in Central America, bordered by Honduras, Guatemala and the pacific ocean. Many know El Salvador for its complex political history, which includes a violent civil war from 1980-1992. What most aren’t aware of are the magnificent volcanoes, world-class surf spots, and amazing produce – El Salvador produces some of the finest cane sugar and coffee in the world.
