Cold brew coffee meets high strength rum from El Salvador, where whole coffee beans are left to steep for two full days before anything reaches the bottle.
Expert Description
Ron Colon Salvadoreno Coffee Infused High Proof is an El Salvador Rum based on the house's High Proof blend, infused with coffee and bottled at 55.5%.
The base rum is a blend of a 6-year-old column-distilled rum from Licorera Cihuatán in El Salvador and Jamaican pot-still rum from the renowned Worthy Park and Hampden distilleries. This blend is then infused with whole coffee beans from Jags Head Coffee in El Salvador in a cold brew-style process, where the beans steep in the rum for 48 hours. Ron Colon was founded in 2018 by two friends who, after a 22-day bar-hopping trip across 16 Latin American countries, decided to create their own brand.
The result is a rum where the coffee's bitterness and roasted tones merge with the Jamaican rum's funky, ester-rich intensity.
