Flor de Cana Eco Rum
Flor de Cana Eco Rum — officially the Eco 15 Year Rum — is an 80-proof (40% ABV) 750mL Nicaraguan rum aged 15 years in American white oak barrels, and it may be the greenest sipping rum on the shelf: distilled with 100% renewable energy, Carbon Neutral certified by the Carbon Trust, and Fair Trade USA certified, with no added sugar, no artificial ingredients, and gluten-free. It is made at a fifth-generation family distillery founded in 1890, on a single estate at the base of the active San Cristóbal volcano.

The Greenest Sipping Rum on the Shelf
Flor de Caña has been distilling in Nicaragua since 1890, and the Eco is its statement bottle: fifteen years in American white oak at the foot of an active volcano, produced on 100% renewable energy and bottled in recycled glass with a label pressed from sugarcane bagasse fiber. The certifications are real — Carbon Trust carbon-neutral, Fair Trade USA — but the pour is what keeps it on the sipping shelf: dark mahogany with prunes and tropical fruits on the nose, caramelized toffee and wood across the palate, and a long, smooth finish.

How to Enjoy
