Cihuatán Xaman XO is an extraordinary ultra-premium 16-year-old rum named after Xaman, the Mayan god of the North Star and the Cihuatán valley.
At the heart of every bottle of Cihuatán Xaman rum lies a sleeping woman, the Mayan goddess and protector of the Cihuatán valley. Legend has it that under the cover of night, she gazes at the brightest star in the sky - the North Star, to ask Xaman for wisdom and prosperity for the valley and its inhabitants before resting on the sacred Ceiba tree.
This is the first XO rum exported from El Salvador and is an artistic creation by Master Blender Gabriela Ayala. The elegant flavor profile is crafted from extra aged Salvadoran rums, which aged for 15 years in American oak barrels previously used for bourbon, and then completed their aging with a year in barrels made from the Mayan tree of life, Ceiba. The wood from this tree was once used by the Maya to create protective items for battle, for charms bringing prosperity, and for crafting vessels for journeys. The bark of the tree was also consumed for its healing properties.
Rum is packaged in cardboard made from sustainably sourced FSC certified materials. Enjoy it neat or on the rocks. It pairs excellently with light snacks such as smoked and sautéed meats, serrano ham, soft cheeses like brie, camembert, burrata, olives, or raisins.
