Maja

With the launch of Maja, El Salvador, this small country located between Honduras and Guatemala, makes a remarkable entry on the world map of rum. This is not surprising when you know that it has a tropical climate and volcanic soil that are very suitable for growing sugar cane. Along with coffee, cotton and corn, it is one of the country's main productions. This is certainly what inspired the creators of Maja, two ambitious entrepreneurs determined to create an exceptional rum that is the pride of an entire nation.

For this, they called on the Cuban ronero maestro, Don Pancho Fernandez, renowned for his experience and expertise in blending. The first Maja rums were made from aged rums that waited patiently in barrels that had previously contained bourbon. Even today, producing sugarcane brandy in El Salvador, which has just emerged from a long civil war, remains a complicated exercise, but the situation is expected to change quickly. Especially since the Majarange, which has two references, an 8-year-old and a 12-year-old, has been very well received. These two rums were presented for the first time in Europe at the third Congreso international del ron in Madrid, in June 2014. The 8-year-old won the bronze medal. As for the 12-year-old, it also received a bronze medal at the fourth Berlin Rum Festival in October 2014. Suffice to say that if El Salvador is the smallest country in Central America, it seems determined to make a place for itself in the hearts of rum lovers.
