Rums Produced in The City of Ponce
- Don Q - Puerto Rico's top-selling rum
The main rum-producing enterprise in Ponce is Destilería Serrallés, Inc., which has been producing rum in site since 1865, with some interruptions. Its flagship brand, Ron Don Q (short for Don Quijote, the favorite character of one of the Serrallés family heirs) dates from 1932. Don Q is Puerto Rico's top-selling rum.

Famous quotes containing the words produced, city and/or ponce:
“I admit that the generation which produced Stalin, Auschwitz and Hiroshima will take some beating; but the radical and universal consciousness of the death of God is still ahead of us; perhaps we shall have to colonize the stars before it is finally borne in upon us that God is not out there.”
—R.J. Hollingdale (b. 1930)
“Not to find one’s way in a city may well be uninteresting and banal. It requires ignorance—nothing more. But to lose oneself in a city—as one loses oneself in a forest—that calls for a quite different schooling. Then, signboard and street names, passers-by, roofs, kiosks, or bars must speak to the wanderer like a cracking twig under his feet in the forest.”
—Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
“I want to go back, like Ponce de Leon, to the Fountain.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
