La Palma Rum: Here, Aldea rums are produced, crafted with top-quality ingredients such as freshly cut sugar cane and pristine water

The rum from La Palma is unique because of its direct distillation from Cane Juice, a technique not commonly used in spirit production.

Unlike most distilled spirits that utilize residual sugar molasses, the rum from La Palma is made from freshly extracted sweet cane juice, thereby retaining its genuine taste and aroma. This technique is practiced at the Ron Aldea Distillery, one of the island’s most ancient and traditional establishments.

Since 1936, the Quevedo family has preserved the century-old tradition inherited from their Rum Masters. In the Aldea Rum Interpretation Museum, visitors can learn about the entire production process, from sugar cane to rum. The distillery also produces Honey Rum, a delight for those with a sweet palate.

The Aldea Rum factory has been a significant source of employment for local farmers and reached production levels of up to 200,000 liters in a single harvest by the late 40s. If you wish to purchase a bottle of Aldea rum to take home, bear in mind that its price is fair given its quality and the tradition it embodies.
