Ron Colon Salvadoreno

Ron Colon Salvadoreno brings El Salvador's sugarcane fields into a rum category otherwise dominated by the Caribbean. It's rum from a country where volcanic soil and tropical climate give the cane its own distinct sweetness.

    Expert Description

    Ron Colon Salvadoreno 81 Proof Aged Dark is an El Salvador Rum blending Salvadoran and Jamaican rum, bottled at 40.5%.

  • Ron Colon Salvadoreno Aged Rum High Proof rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-1972576

    Two countries, two distillation methods and a gold medal from San Francisco, all packed into one bottle with unusual strength from El Salvador.

    Expert Description

    Ron Colon Salvadoreno High Proof Aged Rum is an El Salvador Rum, a blend assembled by Ron Colon Salvadoreno and bottled at 55.5%.

    The blend unites three components: a column-distilled rum aged 6 years from Licorera Cihuatán in El Salvador, an unaged Jamaican pot-still rum and a 3-year-old Jamaican rum, the latter two both from the renowned Worthy Park and Hampden distilleries. 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 rum brand, and the High Proof edition won a gold medal at a competition in San Francisco.

    The style is rich and powerful, where the Salvadoran rum's tropical fruitiness meets the Jamaican rum's funky, smoky intensity.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Grilled pineapple, green banana and marzipan, with a hint of pink pepper.

    Palate

    Grilled pineapple and baking spice, with tobacco leaf, black pepper and dark-roast coffee.

    Finish

    Long and spiced, with dark chocolate and a lingering coffee note.

    On the high mountainside of El Salvador's Santa Ana volcano grow the bourbon-varietal coffee beans that give this rum its pronounced character.

    Expert Description

    Ron Colon Salvadoreno Coffee Infused 81 Proof is an El Salvador Rum infused with coffee, bottled at 40.5%.

    The rum starts from Ron Colón's base of 70% six year old column-distilled rum from Licorera Cihuatán, blended with unaged and three year old pot still rum from the Jamaican distilleries Worthy Park, Hampden and Monymusk. The blend is cold-macerated for 48 hours with whole bourbon-varietal coffee beans from the Jags Head Coffee farms, located on the high mountainside of El Salvador's Santa Ana volcano. No chill filtering or additives beyond the coffee infusion itself are used, and the rum is bottled in the Netherlands.

    The result is an aromatic, coffee-dominated rum, where fresh coffee meets raw cacao and overripe banana in a warm, sweet finish.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Freshly brewed black coffee, raw cacao and overripe banana.

    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.

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.

    Two friends with a combined 20 years of experience in the spirits industry took a 22-day bar-hopping trip across 16 Latin American countries, and it was on that trip that El Salvador caught their attention.

    Expert Description

    Ron Colon Salvadoreno Red Banana Oleo is an El Salvador Rum with banana oleo, bottled at 40.5%.

    The rum is produced by Ron Colón, founded in 2018 by Thurman Wise and Pepijn Janssens, and is blended from aged column-still rum from the Licorera Cihuatán distillery in El Salvador with unaged and aged rum from the Jamaican distilleries Worthy Park, Hampden and Monymusk. The master distiller and blender is Gabriella Ayala. The Red Banana edition adds an "oleo saccharum" of red bananas, a classic bartending technique where the fruit's oils and sweetness are extracted and infused into the rum, giving a pronounced fruity layer on top of the Central American-Jamaican base.

    The result is a sweet, fruity rum, where ripe banana meets the rum's classic spice and molasses base.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Ripe banana, molasses and light spice.

    Palate

    Sweet and fruity with banana and a hint of oak.

    Finish

    RumRye crosses two spirits traditions in a single bottle: Ron Colón's Central American-Jamaican rum blend and a classic American rye whiskey.

    Expert Description

    Ron Colon Salvadoreno RumRye 100 Proof is an El Salvador Rum blended 50/50 with American rye whiskey, bottled at 50%.

    The rum is produced by Ron Colón and builds on the brand's core blend of 6 year old Salvadoran column-still rum from Licorera Cihuatán along with unaged and aged pot still rum from the Jamaican distilleries Worthy Park, Monymusk and Hampden. For RumRye, this rum base is blended in equal parts with a 4 year old American straight rye whiskey made from 100% rye, creating a hybrid that combines the rum's tropical sweetness with the rye whiskey's spiced sharpness.

    The result is a bold, complex spirit, where candied fruit and orange blossom meet the rye's characteristic spice in a dry, citrus-driven finish.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Sticky banana, pineapple, fresh mint and warm honey.

    Palate

    Bold with candied fruit, orange blossom and the rye's sharp spice.

About Ron Colon Salvadoreno Rum

Ron Colon Salvadoreno is distilled in El Salvador, a country rarely mentioned in the same breath as the classic rum nations, but with a long tradition of sugarcane cultivation on its volcanic soil. For newcomers it's a smooth, accessible rum with clear caramel and vanilla character; for collectors it's interesting to explore a Central American rum style not yet as widely explored as the Caribbean classics.

History & Background

El Salvador's rum tradition is closely tied to the country's sugarcane industry, which for generations has supplied local distilleries with high-quality raw material grown in the volcanic soil. Ron Colon Salvadoreno builds on this legacy with a range that highlights the country's often overlooked role in the Latin American rum world. We have only limited specific documentation of the distillery's own founding year, so details are kept deliberately general.

Production & Style

The rum is made using the traditional solera method, in which younger rum is continuously added to older casks, giving it a smooth, complex character across vintages.

Signature Style

Round, Caramel, Complex
The flavor offers a deep, round sweetness with notes of caramel and dried fruit from the solera aging.
