Ron Centenario is produced by Centenario Internacional S.A., a Costa Rican company with deep roots in the country's distillation history. Originally founded in 1969 as Seagram de Costa Rica, the company introduced its first rum, Ron Centenario Añejo, in 1985. In 2002, the company rebranded as Centenario Internacional and swiftly rose to prominence, becoming the leading rum brand in Costa Rica. With a legacy of excellence and innovation, the distillery employs a dual-brewhouse system and uses Costa Rica’s volcanic soil-grown sugarcane, producing rums known for their depth, balance, and vibrant character.

Serving Suggestions:

Best enjoyed neat and slightly below room temperature (around 60–65°F), Ron Centenario Fundación XX 20 Aniversario is a sipping rum that rewards patience and contemplation. While it can serve as the base for upscale cocktails or long drinks, its delicate structure and complexity shine most brightly when savored unaccompanied. A perfect pairing with dark chocolate, aged cheeses, or spiced nuts.

This 20-year solera-aged masterpiece is a symbol of refined craftsmanship and Costa Rican terroir. With its layered sweetness, elegant spice, and award-winning pedigree, it appeals to rum collectors, connoisseurs, and anyone seeking a super-premium spirit that combines power and grace.
