Alux is a hot 15-year-old novelty from the Salvadoran distillery Cihuatán. It is a limited edition of rum, which is created in honor of the Mayan Alux, the guardian gods of the earth. According to Mayan tradition, these gods lived in the corn and cocoa fields, which were considered the most sacred gifts of the earth.
The rum was made from a mixture of light and heavy rums distilled using a Column Still, aged between 15 years. After mixing, the rum was filled into ex-sherry Oloroso and ex-cognac casks, thanks to which it acquired a pleasant taste of dark chocolate, rice pudding, caramel and spices.
The rum comes in a beautiful brown-gold gift box that will stand out perfectly in your collection. We recommend serving neat at room temperature.
Limited edition! Cihuatán Sahumerio is a Salvadoran rum created to celebrate love. The symbol of love in Mayan symbolism is the fire that guards the eagle goddess Chantico. Therefore, every household should, in honor of love, maintain a lighted sacred vessel on fire called "Sahumerio" day and night. The Mayans were a firmly entrenched community and deeply valued love and relationships. To attract love, they performed a simple magical ritual: they burned sacrifices in Sahumerio to win the favor of the goddess Chantico. Each sacrifice had its meaning: dried flowers, myrtle or flower honey for love, dried fruit for family unity, incense for friendship, cocoa, seeds and butter for protection and love for oneself. Rum Cihuatán Sahumerio is a mixture of four light and heavy, 12 to 14 year old Salvadoran vintage rums , which faithfully resemble the tones of raw materials used in the burning of Sahumeria.
Enjoy this great rum to celebrate love pure or on ice!
It is also perfect for steaks, parmesan, Spanish manchego or dates.
Aroma and taste: reminiscent of ritual dried flowers, dried apricots, flower honey, incense and cocoa butter
