Summum / Cañero is a tribute to the Dominican peasants who have been cultivating and harvesting sugar cane for generations. It is in this spirit and in the respect of Cuban-Dominican traditions that our Cuban rum master Juan Alberto Alvarez has developed Cañero, rum of Spanish tradition but distilled from the pure sugar cane juice grown in the Dominican Republic, and aged rigorously according to the traditional Spanish method of solera.
Launched in 2014, under the Summum brand, Cañero strongly claims its Dominican origin, a country much better known as a tourist destination than for its rum. And yet, it is here that we find one of the first written records of a sugar cane harvest in 1515, the year that saw the export of sugar to Spain. It was Christopher Columbus himself who planted the first seedlings in December 1493. But it was not until the middle of the 18th century that rum really took root. There were 173 distilleries in 1791 and even ten more in 1806. The figure will continue to decline until today when only two companies are still active on the island, including Brugal which produces Cañero in one of its three distilleries located in the Dominican Republic whose name is Yazoo. Selected and assembled by Caribbean Distillers, Cañero is a rum made from pure sugar cane juice. A real particularity in a region that favors the rons of tradition
