It is a Cuban factory that produces the Rum Havana Club, which historically gives the international prestige that the Cuban rum has.
When talking about the Ronera of Santa Cruz del Norte, it is thought, as a unique product, in the rum, and fundamentally, in the Havana Club. However, that industry had a stage between the 1970s and 1990s, where it worked as a great Combination of Beverages and Spirits.
The former Santa Cruz Combine of Beverages and Liqueurs produced in that period several types of rums, in addition to the varieties of Havana Club and Ron Santa Cruz. These included the Varadero, the Tropicana, the Isla del Tesoro and the Caribbean Club, destined for export; the Arecha Extra, which was also exported to Spain, Ron Exquisito, made from aguardiente de guarapo, instead of the traditional sugarcane endings and the low alcoholic Antillian Rum, destined for the reserves for the defense of the country, in case of armed aggression.
In the container workshop, bottles for rum and finished rums were bottled, which were sent to different bottlers both in the country and abroad. An example of the latter was in Canada, where it was packed Ron Carta Plata Havana Club, exported in containers.
The plant had a Production and bottling plant of liquors, with more than 30 different flavors, under the brand Havana Club. Mint, Choco Menta, Choco Nut, Cocoa, Bonbon, Diabolic, Triple SEC and Marrasquino were among them.
On the other hand, small whiskey productions of very good quality were made from fermented beer stock with the Old Havana brand for two years, in two varieties, one with red and one black label. There were also three varieties of Vodka: NATURAL, FLAVORED WITH LEMON AND TASTEED WITH ORANGE, which had as their fundamental destination the markets of Eastern Europe, while the Socialist Field existed.
In collaboration with a foreign firm, the Champagne Moet and Shandon was produced for some time, and some small experimental productions of the effervescent wines CALETA DE CHIPIONA and CALETA DE ROTILLA were made, others of lemon-flavored or orange-flavored brandy and even tests were made Of laboratory to make a brandy from the fermentation of the mango.
And, alcoholic beverages aside, there are almost unknown products of La Ronera, such as amyl alcohol, used by Suchel as a fixative in perfumery; Carbon dioxide, used by the soft drink industry, among others; The technical alcohol, which is used in the oil industry and above all else, which is currently not used, and which could become meat and milk. This is the fondation of the fermenters, which although still discarded as residual, is rich in proteins and nutrients, and therefore perfectly usable in cattle feed, according to the experience of other similar industries.
