An exceptional Panamanian rum with mineral and indulgent notes
Abuelo, the excellence of Panamanian rum since 1908
Founded in 1908 by Spanish immigrant José Varela Blanco with the Ingenio San Isidro in Pesé, the century-old family-owned distillery Abuelo represents Panamanian national pride. Since 1936, three generations have perpetuated the tradition of pure cane juice rum. The Don José distillery, built in 1976, now holds 90% of national production with more than 1,200 hectares of cultivated sugarcane.
15 Years Old Oloroso Finish, an exceptional rum with Iberian influences
Abuelo 15 Years Old Oloroso Finish represents the culmination of the Maison’s century-old expertise. Crafted from fermented cane honey and molasses, this rum is column-distilled according to traditional methods. After a minimum aging of 14 years in American white oak barrels, it benefits from a 12-month finish in casks that previously held Oloroso sherry. This dual maturation gives the spirit its unique character, combining the richness of the Panamanian terroir with Iberian influences. Bottled at 40% ABV in a 70 cl bottle, this exceptional rum develops a mineral and indulgent aromatic profile that makes it a benchmark among aged rums from Central America.
