Cihuatan Aged Rum Xo 16 Year

Cihuatan Aged Rum Xaman XO 16 Year 80 is an extraordinary ultra-premium rum that transcends the ordinary, paying homage to Xaman, the Mayan god of the North Star and the Cihuatán Valley. This unique rum is the epitome of Salvadoran craftsmanship, named after the divine protector of the valley—a sleeping woman, a Mayan goddess whose nightly journey seeks wisdom and prosperity from Xaman. The legend weaves a tale of the goddess resting on the sacred Ceiba tree, symbolizing the connection between the rum and the sacred traditions of the Mayan people.

This XO rum is the first of its kind to be exported from El Salvador, a masterpiece created by Master Blender Gabriela Ayala. The elegant taste profile is a result of extra-old Salvadoran rums maturing for 15 years in American oak barrels, followed by a finishing touch with a year in barrels crafted from the Mayan tree of Ceiba life. The Ceiba tree, with its historical significance for the Maya, imparts unique qualities to the rum, echoing the use of its wood in protective items, spells for prosperity, and voyages.

Packaged in sustainable cardboard from FSC-certified sources, Cihuatan Aged Rum Xaman XO invites you to enjoy its rich flavors alone or over ice. It also pairs exceptionally well with small snacks, such as smoked and roasted meats, serrano ham, and light cheeses like brie, camembert, and burrata, along with olives or raisins.
