Central American rum is column-still rum aged in ex-bourbon barrels, smooth and sweet-leaning, and it's where a lot of people start with aged rum. Panama is the center of it. Don Pancho Fernandez, the Cuban master blender behind Ron Abuelo, the Don Pancho Orígenes line, and the Panamá-Pacific releases that Chips Liquor is known for, set the style, and Malecon and Zafra draw from the same Panamanian stock. Guatemala brings Ron Zacapa and Botran, aged in the highlands using a solera system; Nicaragua brings Flor de Caña, including the 18, 25, and V Generaciones 30; El Salvador brings Ron Cihuatán; Costa Rica brings Ron Centenario; and Belize brings Copalli and the Travellers distillery casks that Holmes Cay and Planteray bottle. These are the rums to pour over a single big cube, and the younger expressions make a clean Cuba Libre or Daiquiri.
