Rum Malecon

Rum Malecon a unique story from the world of rum

In 1990, Marco Savio joined his father's company, founded in 1958. At that time, the company produced typical liqueurs for the region and imported coffee to Europe. Because of this, Marco Savio soon began traveling throughout Central America in search of the best coffee plantations.
The foundation for Rum Malecon was laid when he met an important rum master blender who introduced him to the world of rum. This was the starting point for a long journey into a fascinating world full of secrets passed down from generation to generation, which Marco also knew how to use and internalize thanks to his experience as a spirits producer. Through careful study and experimentation over a 10-year period and collaboration with several rum masters in Cuba, Guatemala and Panama, Marco Savio refined his knowledge of Central American rums and made the decision to develop a new product line for his company. Marco Savio began working with master distillers to produce rum according to his exclusive recipes. Thus, in 2000, he founded Rum Malecon. Initially, the range consisted of only 5 products and focused on unique and elegant rums for true connoisseurs. Over the years, the range has been expanded and now covers all market needs. In this way, Marco has realized his vision of making high quality rum accessible to a wide range of customers.
