In 1985 we started the project to build a rum factory in Lima, Peru; in 1994 the Peruvian State Mark stopped our operations and we lost 18,000 barrels containing some great rum. Today however, we not only recovered the industry but we have over 43,000 barrels and have made many technological contributions to the industry. One example is our Ron Cartavio XO, which uses an innovation with 100 liter barrels and a unique handling right up to bottling.
The Mojito:
Several mint leaves (spearmint)
2 tablespoons sugar
3 cl. lemon juice
4 cl. white rum
Schweppes soda water
Method:
In a Collins glass, we add the sugar, lemon juice and mint leaves (spearmint). Muddle to extract the flavor from the leaves. Then we add ice, rum and soda. Garnish with a sprig of mint.
