Santa Ana 138 Overproof Rum

Santa Ana 138 is a high-strength overproof rum inspired by the vibrant jazz age of Manila in the 1920s and the legendary Santa Ana Cabaret. The product is crafted in the Philippines, a country with a deep-rooted history in sugar cane cultivation and distillation. It is distilled from local Philippine sugar cane and aged in American oak barrels, resulting in a complex profile that balances the intense 69% ABV (138 proof) with smooth floral and citrus notes.

The brand was founded by entrepreneur Stephen Carroll through his company, Bleeding Heart Rum Company. The company's operations are deeply tied to the Negros region of the Philippines, known as 'Sugarlandia'. While the brand draws from Philippine heritage and ingredients, the ultimate ownership lies with the British-based specialty spirits firm or its strategic investment partners, ensuring global distribution and premium positioning in the international market.
