I ask La Isla's field researcher, Rhonda, for her take. "I've been to a variety of fields, some under supervision of Nicaragua Sugar Estates Limited and a couple more where I came uninvited and unexpected," she says. "On the tour, they made an attempt at shade, water, rest. On the fields where I showed up without notice, there was no trace of water or shade to be found, and there certainly were not workers resting at any point." The 7 Gran Reserva comes in a lovely upright almost square bottle. The new label looks more sleek and modern than its predecessor and indeed the age statement has been removed. This is now simply 7 Gran Reserva. So the 7 could stand for absolutely anything at all. This could mean a downgrade in the liquid inside but at the same time it also gives the blender more room for manoeuvre to produce consistent batches of the same rum over time. He is not tied to certain ages of rum etc. Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA. It works only in coordination with the primary cookie. In 1890, he found the perfect setting for the Flor de Caña distillery at the base of Nicaragua’s tallest and most active volcano: the San Cristóbal. The fertility of its surrounding lands, the enriched water and the tropical volcanic climate proved to be instrumental in forging the rum’s exceptionally smooth flavour.They want to do what's best and what's best is within their pragmatic interest, which is not to have lawsuits," he says. "And in San Antonio, they're in a totally closed loop. They're the largest family in the poorest country in Central America and they're accountable to absolutely no one. They have no international exposure except for Flor de Caña. The other problem is that the Nicaraguan government is getting all their information on that issue from the Pellas group."

Nicaraguan rum producers Compania Licorera De Nicaragua S.A have been “slow ageing” their “Tradicion Artesenal” Flor De Cana rum since 1890 in Chichigalpa, Nicaragua.Ultimately, what you pour out of the bottle is only going to be as good as the ingredients that went into it. Blessed with volcano-enriched molasses, Flor de Caña safeguards its product through every step of production. Reaction: I´m thinking older siblings in the Flor de Cana family could be interesting to meet with. The twelve year old feels young and uncertain but the pedigree is there and should be able to produce something more astute. This one feels adolescent, thin and a little cheap which it really isn´t. This version would never be my first choice among the many other tasty friends I have in my cabinet so when do I drink it?

Still this is one of the issues rum has created for itself in many ways. It simply cannot be trusted!

The natural beauty of Nicaragua — pristine lakes and waterfalls, fertile jungle, bountiful sugarcane — convinced him to make rum his business. So in 1890 he established a distillery at the base of San Cristóbal, the tallest and most active volcano in Nicaragua. This fateful decision led to the birth of Flor de Caña, and a liquid legacy guarded today by his great-great-grandchildren. The Secret Is in the Soil

The most common misperception of rum is that it is sweet or that it has a high sugar content. However, Flor de Caña rums have zero sugar content. Our rums are naturally aged without any sort of additives, accelerants or artificial ingredients. We only use three elements: alcohol of maximum purity, premium bourbon barrels and time.

We are told that our pay includes the seventh day, but that is not true," Joe,* who works in the human resources department at ISA says. Joe has been working for the company for five years and notes that during his first year, when he was cutting sugarcane, his creatinine levels went above normal. He has since been able to control them. Inc., M. Shanken Communications.

The soil is fertilized by ash, the ideal rooting ground for rich molasses. That same mineral-laden earth helps enrich the water, percolating through the ages into underground reservoirs. Consequently, this unique biome artfully sculpts the two ingredients most vital to high-end rum.
