Description
Good to Know
It's not just a tasting, it's an experience guided by me and my father. It will be two intense hours of learning and fun amid the beauty of nature and vegetation.
Unlike other visits, here you don’t just observe the process – you understand it, you feel it, and you even experiment when you learn to grind sugar cane yourself. Experience is formed in precision, care and clear transmission of knowledge, which today shares with passion the traditional artisan distillation of Paute.
Each step – learn to distill in Paute – is explained with rigor, warmth and respect for family tradition, creating a close, authentic and memorable space. Ideal for those looking to learn, connect with the local culture and live a real, cared for and human experience.

You will walk through its reeds and fruit trees to learn the secrets of growing and harvesting sugar cane. Then we will teach you to grind the cane in the trapiche and get the juice, which here is known as "guarapo" and you will taste the cane honey. We will explain the fermentation process of the guaapo and the distillation process with firewood that we use. You will visit the magical oak barrel cava where the magic happens that allows the spirit to transform into rum. Finally, hand in hand with the master rum, you will learn to taste aguardiente, rums, mistelas that you can enjoy with a traditional piqueeo of the area.
