SelvaRey Rum is a premium U.S.-based rum brand whose aged, single estate White, Chocolate, and Owner's Reserve Rums are distilled in Pesé, Panama, by Master Blender Francisco 'Don Pancho' Fernandez in antique copper column stills.[2]

Pronounced Sel-Vuh-Ray, the brand name translates loosely from Spanish to 'King of the Jungle,' a nod to 'Don Pancho' carving his distillery and sugarcane fields out of the Panamanian wilderness, with the brand exuding tropical luxury.[3]

SelvaRey is currently distributed in the United States, Japan, and Greater China.[3]
