Copalli Rum is a sustainable rum in the heart of the Belizean Rainforest. Built in 2017 and surrounded by 22,000 acres of rainforest conservancy, the farm is the first certified-organic farm in Belize. Copalli’s core founding principles was to make great tasting rum with all-natural ingredients, while honoring the land and the community.

• The distillery is designed to be zero impact. The stills are powered by sustainable, regenerative biomass and the process supports full-circle conversion of waste from production into agricultural inputs. Rainforest water is captured in holding tanks for blending. There is no toxic waste run-off, typical to other rum distilling practices.

• We grow our organic non-GMO, heirloom sugar cane on-site at Copal Tree Farms and oversee the production of the rum from start to finish.

• As the largest employer in Southern Belize, Copalli is proud to give back by supporting local community activities and providing educational grants.
