Origins of the Name

"Caney" originates from the name of the houses of the Cuban aborigines, built with wood, characterized by their circular walls and a cone-shaped roof.

History of Ron Caney

Ron Caney rum was first introduced in 1934 by Ramón del Collado. The brand gained significant recognition since its inception. In the early 1960s, the brand was relaunched, and its exportation began to European and American markets, including Russia, Germany, Bolivia, Ecuador, Mexico, and Colombia. Ron Caney's high quality was acknowledged at the Plovdiv 1966 and Leipzig 1967 Fairs.

Awards and Recognition

The brand's excellence was further recognized at the 1993 Havana Fair and the first International Rum Festival in Havana in 2004. At the latter, Caney Añejo Centuria received the grand prize in a blind tasting.
