Producer history Cartavio
The Cartavio distillery was started in 1929 by the Cartavio Sugar Company (linked to W.R. Grace) in the Chicama Valley; the facility and brand went through nationalizations and several corporate restructurings during the 20th and 21st centuries. Specialized sources indicate production primarily uses sugarcane molasses as a base, with column distillation and at least one historic discontinuous (pot) still; ownership and management have changed multiple times, involving state entities, industrial groups and private companies as noted in available corporate timelines.
