  Cihuatán Alux Limited Edition rum is a special and rare spirit that honors the ancient Maya civilization. Inspired by the Maya legend of the Aluxes, the protective gods of the land, this rum captures the essence of the sacred ingredients the Maya held in the highest regard: corn and cacao. The Maya believed that the Aluxes resided in their corn and cacao fields, as these were considered the most divine and essential gifts from the earth. To honor these gods, the Maya held great feasts at the start of each harvest season, where they enjoyed rich treats made from chocolate and corn, in gratitude for the blessings of the harvest.

  In line with this tradition, Cihuatán has crafted a rum that captures the flavors and spirit of this ancient ceremony. The rum is carefully crafted, combining the finest ingredients to create a complex and flavorful profile. It begins its aging process in carefully selected ex-bourbon casks, where it develops a rich base of vanilla, caramel, and subtle spices. What truly makes this rum exceptional is its finishing in ex-Oloroso and ex-Cognac casks. This unique finishing process adds additional layers of complexity, bringing out deeper flavors of dark chocolate, roasted corn, and the smooth, elegant sweetness of Cognac.

Ron Cihuatan Rum Ron de El Salvador Cihuatán is El Salvador’s only rum distillery. Ron Cihuatán’s story dates all the way back to the ancient Mayan city of Cihuatán. According to legend, a goddess bestowed Cihuatán with riches and fertility, with her spirit watching over the sugarcane fields remaining in the shape of the Guazapa Mountain. This El Salvadorian rum is named after this legend, which in Nahuat “Cihuatán” translates “the land beside the sleeping woman.” Produced by Licorera Cihuatán, a subsidiary of Ingenio La Cabaña of El Salvador. This rum is made using a 100-year-old sugar cane mill. Licorera Cihuatán distillery was established in 2004 and began distilling and aging their rums. After fermentation the rum is aged in new and used American oak bourbon barrels using the Solera method. The age statement is minimum age. El Salvador’s first rum, this spirit is handcrafted 100% by Salvadoran hands. “Our rum’s mystical surroundings, our sugarcane and aging methods, mixed with our hard work and patience, give Ron Cihuatán an unmistakable quality,” says Gabriela Ayala, Cihuatán’s Master Blender.
