Flor De Cana Exclusive Atlanta Dinner : Celebrating National Rum Day | August 16th Friday 17 August, 2018

I was invited to attend Flor de Caña, Nicaragua’s most famous spirit and the country’s top export for an exclusive press dinner on to celebrate National Rum Day. The dinner will took place at the upscale oyster bar and cocktail lounge BeetleCat in the heart of Atlanta.
Aged at the Base of an Active Volcano
Flor de Caña is enriched by the unique properties of the San Cristóbal volcano, the tallest and most active in Nicaragua. The fertility of its soil, the enriched water and the volcanic climate to which the barrels are exposed during the aging process contribute in creating the singularly smooth character of this delicious and well-balanced rum.
Flor de Caña Mixtronomy
During the dinner, you will get a deep dive into the spirit through an evening of cocktails and over-the-top food pairings led by Flor de Caña ambassador David Powell. This Flor de Caña Mixtronomy dinner will feature highlights from the Nicaraguan rum’s premium portfolio, showcasing the elegance of the lauded spirit’s 125-year history alongside dishes that bring out the rum’s smooth, balanced taste.
100% Naturally Aged
Flor de Caña is 100% naturally aged in white oak premium bourbon barrels sealed with plantain leaves, producing a distinguished and elegant rum with tropical notes. The undisturbed aging process contributes to the rum’s remarkable amber color and rich flavor, without the use of artificial ingredients or accelerants and with zero sugar content.
I love tasting and learning more about Flor De Cana brand. A great way to celebrate National Rum Day.
