The Rum, is a traditional rum, made with molasses and tends to release more vivid, spiced, and heavy notes. 

 

The Ron, is also made by fermenting molasses and thus has similar characteristics to 'Rum', but tends to offer a slightly lighter and smoother flavor profile. This is true of many Central American rums.

​

The Spanish style Ron is prepared in areas such as El Salvador, Honduras, Panama, Cuba and Nicaragua
