Between January and August 2025, rum production fell by 37.1% compared to the same period in 2024, followed by gin (28.7%) and beer (11.9%).
However, a previous report published by the same institution confirmed that, from January to November 2024, the decline was 36.6%.
Experts state that this result is part of a broader trend in the Central American country, where a decrease in the production of other alcoholic beverages is also observed, except for some premium brands such as whisky and cognac, which increased significantly by 47% and 60%, respectively.
