Ron Botran 12 Yr Reserva Superior Rum is a Guatemalan rum distilled from concentrated sugar cane juice subjected to slow fermentation. The Botran family is commonly known for sugarcane production in Guatemala, but in 1939 they decided to begin a journey by establishing Industria Licorera Quetzalteca. The five brothers agreed that the ultimate place to age rum in Guatemala was Quetzaltenango. Since that day they have been involved in all the details regarding their rum production. Although the nurturing process has evolved, it all began with the nurturing process called “Sistema Solera.” This process implies the integration of young and old rums, as they mellow for years in white oak barrels. They are the first family that produced Guatemalan rum, nowadays they continue producing one of the world's finest quality rums. Solera 1893 and Reserva high quality rums have won many worldwide awards for their intricacy, profundity and signature sweet flavor. Ron Botran 12 Yr Reserva Superior Rum is aged under the Solera system in the mountains of Guatemala, in American white oak casks that previously contained American whisky, toasted casks and casks that once aged old sherry wines
