Ron Zacapa Centenario is a premium rum brand produced in Guatemala by Rum Creation and Products, a subsidiary of Industrias Licoreras de Guatemala, and distributed and marketed by Diageo. Zacapa Centenario was created in 1976 to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of the foundation of Zacapa, a town in eastern Guatemala. It was the result of the blending, stabilization and maturing processes of long-aged rums by doctor and chemist named Alejandro Burgaleta. Unlike most rums, Ron Zacapa rums are made from sugar cane juice rather than molasses, and are aged in a facility at a high altitude with natural coolness which affects the maturation process.
