Hacienda Mercedita
Hacienda Mercedita was a sugarcane plantation in Ponce, Puerto Rico, founded in 1861, by Juan Serrallés Colón.〔(300 acre )〕〔(Foundation date. ''Puerto Rico’s New History'' by James L. Deitz. )〕〔(Founder )〕 Today Hacienda Mercedita no longer grows sugarcane and its lands are instead used for growing mangoes, grasses, landscape plants and palms, coconut palms, bananas, and seeds.〔''La Sucesión Juan Serrallés, Inc., festeja sus primeros 150 años de historia.'' La Perla del Sur. Ponce, Puerto Rico. Year 33. Issue 1630. Pages 20-21. 23 February 2015.〕
The Hacienda was the administrative center of the large sugarcane mill called ''Central Mercedita'' as well as that of its cane sugar refinery plant which packaged the ''Snow White'' brand sugar at its nearby packaging plant.〔(Snow White sugar refinery )〕 Hacienda Mercedita was also the site of origin of a rum production in 1865 that became the successful Destilería Serrallés rum distillery producing Don Q and other spirits.〔(Serrallés Rum History begins in 1865 )〕 ''Central Mercedita'' closed down in December 1994, and its sugar mill site is abandoned and in ruins.〔(Central Mercedita closes its doors )〕 The Serrallés rum distillery, however, is an expanding and successful company still operating from the same original location, in barrio Vayas, southeast of the intersection of routes PR-10 and PR-52.〔(''Map Showing Susceptibility to Rainfall-triggered Landslides in the Municipality of Ponce, Puerto Rico: Scientific Investigations Map I-2818.'' By Mattew C. Larsen, Marylin Santiago, Randall Jibson, and Eduardo Questell. USGS. 2004. ) Geopolitical Map of the Municipality showing Central Mercedita is located southeast of PR-10 and PR-52. Retrieved November 27, 2009.〕 ''Central Mercedita'', where the local sugar cane was processed, is now owned by Puerto Rico's ''Autoridad de Tierras'' (English: Land Authority).〔''En el Senado: Promuevem la Central como Centro Agropecuario.'' Jason Rodriguez Grafal. La Perla del Sur. Ponce, Puerto Rico. 14 October 2009. Page 6.〕 Though Hacienda Mercedita was located in a different barrio, Sabanetas, its location was next to the rum destillery, the two being separated only by La Esperanza street (PR-5506).
