Rum Experience by Sabandí
Sabanero Tours
“Sabaneros” is the name given to the Costa Rican cowboys, since they would spend hours and hours guarding the great Guanacaste savannah and its animals. Be part of this experience, and experience working in a poultry farm, milking cows, saddling and tying horses. Includes: guide, refreshments, transportation.
Amidst the plains of Guanacaste, su- rrounded by sugar cane fields and the most important river in the blue zone of Costa Rica, we find Hacienda el Viejo, with a manor house that is over 150 years old and offers the first rum experience in Costa Rica. Prepare your senses to hear, see, smell, touch and taste the whole process of extracting and cooking sugar- cane juice in a traditional way, until it rea- ches the distiller where the first liquors of
the highest purity are obtained. The Ric- khouse awaits you with its oak barrels, which age and improve the flavors of our Ron Sabandí every day.
