A Legacy Blend, Selected by Inheritance
Fundacion — "foundation" — is Centenario Internacional's legacy rum: the solera stocks the house built its name on, blended from rums spanning 6 to 20 years of continuous ageing in American oak. Where the 25 Gran Reserva reaches five years further, the 20 is the rounder, more vanilla-led pour of the pair. Explore the house on the Ron Centenario vendor page, or browse our rum collection.
Tasting Notes
Per the producer's notes: mild vanilla, brandy, milk chocolate, caramel, and fruits such as apple and cherry on the nose; a soft, pleasant, slightly sweet palate with vanilla and red and creamy fruits, over oak essence.
How to Enjoy
Sip it neat or with a single cube as an after-dinner rum. The older sibling is in our rum collection as the 25 Gran Reserva.
