Panamian rum Sérum – inspiration and honour to Panama Canal

Rum inspired by real wonder of the world…

Sérum is a super-premium brand of rums produced and aged in Panama. Created in 2018, inspired by magnificent construction of Panama Canal and willing to commemorate its heroes and stories with every bottle, as we strongly believe that some names shall not be forgotten.

Panama Canal is one of the wonders of modern world, connecting Atlantic and Pacific ocean. By cutting Amercian continent in two pieces, Panama Canal saves thousands of miles and lives and makes the world „smaller“ and voyages safer. Idea of connecting Atlantic and Pacific ocean is dated back to 16th century, but the real construction was born between 1880 – 1914 in pain and with many victims. We can rightly consider Panama Canal for exeptional masterpiece of human work.

Taste of Panama in every drop…

Serum is an exeptional, super-premium rum, consistent in following the spirit of its inspiration. Everything begins with sugar cane virgin honey gained from localy grown cane. We use this to preserve more of the aroma and flavours in the future rum. After 3 days of fermentation with carefully selected yeasts we put the liquid into traditional column still. Our recipe is single, but precize destilation, delivering the proper spirit combining robust and bold, but still light impression on palate. Maturation takes place in selected bourbon barrels made of American White oak.  The whole proces results in perfectly balanced rum, with complex character and smooth taste.

Bottle – art of work…

We believe that exeptional rum deserves exeptional bottling. New bottle for Serum rum was designed and developed in close cooperation with famous Czech studio Mikovec Design. Shaped as traditional rum barrels and decorated with embossing commemorating the beginning and the end of Panama Canal construction, Serum bottle is more a design masterpiece than just a package. Our effort was awarded on international Spirits Business competition in London 2020, where our maginifient bottle won Gold Medal.
