List of products by brand Icidca Vigia ron

Small Cuban distillery, dedicated to the production of an excellent molasses rum, which as per tradition warms the heart and gives a smile!

Cuban rum undeniably represents the pinnacle of quality rum worldwide.

And Santiago de Cuba is its undisputed sanctuary, thanks to its ancient distilleries dating back to the mid-1800s, which have made Cuban rum known around the globe.

Among them, the Vigia distillery stands out, crafting its "Gran Reserva" from sugarcane molasses.

Ron Vigia S.A. (or Bodega Vigia) is the result of a joint venture between Island Rum Brands S.L. (a subsidiary of Island Rum Company) and AZCUBA Sugar Group (Cuba’s state-owned leading sugar and alcohol producer and supplier).

This would be the first fully integrated rum production enterprise in Cuba since Havana Club, with a 50-50 capital investment and a 30-year validity.

The name Vigia is inspired by Ernest Hemingway’s house, which was called Finca Vigia, while “Bodega” means "cellar" or "warehouse", an appropriate name given that over 7,000 barrels of aged Cuban rum were included in the agreement.

Production of the “Gran Reserva” is limited to only 4,500 bottles, each numbered and subject to strict quality controls.

After distillation, the "Gran Reserva" is aged for 18 years in selected American white oak barrels.

Vigia thus achieves a prestigious product, a true expression of Cuban rum tradition.

By meticulously monitoring each step of the production process, the highest quality standards are always maintained, ensuring that today, the “Gran Reserva” is one of the most sought-after and appreciated Cuban rums among enthusiasts and connoisseurs.

Vigia was the first distillery to be established in Santiago de Cuba, and as such, it has contributed more than any other to making Cuban rum one of the world's finest spirits.

Moreover, Ron Vigia bears the personal emblem of the great American writer Ernest Hemingway, a passionate admirer of Cuban rum.
