Zacapa Edición Negra is masterfully crafted in Guatemala using the first press of sugar cane and aged 2300m 'Above the Clouds' to slow the aging process, developing layers of aromas and flavors within the rum. Zacapa Edición Negra is made of a blend of rums between 6 and 24 years old and is inspired by the natural elements of Guatemala including the dark fire of its volcanoes.
Edición Negra is aged in select barrels including double charred American oak casks, creating a rich, dark rum with a smoky intensity. Every bottle of Edición Negra is adorned with a hand-woven petate band crafted by a community of over 700 Guatemalan weavers.
Includes one 86 proof, 750 mL bottle of Zacapa Edición Negra Rum

Process
Virgin sugar cane
Unlike most rums that are made from molasses, our rums are made using the first press of sugar cane.
Fermentation
Our fermentation process uses a strain of yeast derived from pineapples which brings out incredible aromas and flavors.
Distillation
During the distillation process, the flavor and aroma character and profile of each rum is defined.
Petate weaving
Empowering women and giving Zacapa bottles Guatemalan authenticity.
In 1976 the first Zacapa bottle was completely covered by Petate weaving made by women from El Progreso. By 1999 Zacapa took the initiative to support women from El Quiché who where displaced by conflict, creating work opportunities for their Petate weaving skills.
Later on, other villages from Jocotán were heavily affected by a dry season that destroyed their crops which were their main source of income. Zacapa was able to incorporate them and give the opportunity to generate a new income. Throughout these turbulent times, women have emerged as inspirational leaders in their communities.
