Cihuatán Xaman is an ultra-premium rum fondly named after Xaman, Mayan god of the North Star and protector of the Cihuatán valley. This elegant composition features extra-old rums aged in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels and then finished in Mayan Ceiba barrels. Our Master Blender especially selected the unique wood of the Mayan Ceiba tree for its rich character and alluring profile. As part of Cihuatán Rum’s commitment to renewable resources, Cihuatán Xaman’s Gift Box will be crafted using FSC certified carton, which comes from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits.

In the heart of every bottle of
Cihuatán Xaman lies the Sleeping Woman,
Mayan goddess and guardian of the
Cihuatán valley.
Legend has it that under the veil of night,
the Sleeping Woman would look for the
brightest star in the sky. This was Xaman,
god of the North Star.
The Sleeping Woman would ask Xaman for wisdom and
prosperity for the valley and its people. Xaman would
then rest atop a sacred Ceiba tree, the Mayan tree of life.

CEIBA TREE

All the Ceiba photos have
been shot exclusively for
Cihuatán Rum by Salvadoran
photographer Monica
Torrento. She visited 6
different locations
throughout El Salvador to
find the most memorable
Ceiba trees: La Libertad, La
Paz, Ahuachapán, Santa Ana,  Sonsonate and San Salvador.

DIVINITY

The Maya cherished the wood of
their Ceiba trees and used it to
craft items of protection for
battle, charms to bring prosperity
and vessels for travel
The nahuat name for
“Ceiba” is Ya’axché,
and it literally means
“divinity”
