Distillery Information

Darsa Distillery is in Guatemala's tropical landscape. It is famous for making high-quality rum. Darsa is known for its great-tasting rum, rich history, and traditional methods. It has helped shape the world's view of premium Central American rums. The company started in Guatemala, which is great for growing sugarcane. The volcanic soil, tropical climate, and rainfall are ideal. This gives sugarcane rich in essential sugars for top rum production. The distillery uses these natural resources well. They farm sustainably to keep the land fertile. Darsa focuses on traditional production techniques. They put a lot of importance on the quality of their sugarcane. This is key in making rum. They handle the cane carefully to keep its natural flavours. These are important for the rum's final taste. This care also goes into the fermentation process. Darsa uses special yeast strains. This helps develop rich, complex flavours. Distillation is where Darsa's skill stands out. They use column and pot still distillation. Column stills make a lighter, more refined spirit. Pot stills make a richer, fuller rum. This lets Darsa offer a wide range of rums. Ageing is another area where the company shows its craftsmanship. They age their rum in selected oak barrels. This adds more flavours to the spirit. Guatemala's climate helps here. The heat and humidity speed up ageing. This increases the interaction between the rum and the wood. It gives the rum a distinctive smoothness and complexity.
