The Auténtico Nativo Overproof 54% 700ml is a quintessential Panamanian rum, meticulously crafted at the renowned Las Cabras distillery. The journey of this exquisite spirit begins in the mineral-rich volcanic soil of the Herrera province, where the sugarcane thrives. The fermented molasses is continuously distilled using a classic 1922 copper and brass still, ensuring a unique and refined character that stands out in the world of overproof rums. As a direct competitor to the Compañero Panama, this Auténtico Nativo variant not only matches the chocolate tones but surpasses it with a softer, less harsh, and more rounded profile. The balance and complexity of this rum make it an exceptional choice for enthusiasts looking for depth and richness in their drink. Chocolate lovers will particularly appreciate the intense flavors, coupled with a hint of spiciness and an authentically sweet undertone. Despite its potent alcohol volume, the rum's sweetness artfully tempers the strength, making it a remarkable sipping experience. Pairing it with dark chocolate, especially those with sour fruit pieces, elevates the tasting journey to new heights. However, it's essential to savor it responsibly, considering its high ABV.

While both rums share similar chocolate profiles and ABV, Auténtico Nativo is noted for being less harsh, more rounded, and exceptionally balanced, making it a superior choice for many enthusiasts.
Given its rich chocolate flavor and complex character, Auténtico Nativo Overproof 54% pairs beautifully with dark chocolate, especially those with sour fruit pieces. However, it's strong, so it's best enjoyed slowly and responsibly.
The Auténtico Nativo Overproof 54% stands out as one of the finest Panamanian rums I’ve ever tasted. It’s honest, dry, intensely spicy, and carries a beautiful natural sweetness. The rich cocoa and dark chocolate notes are complemented by an authentic touch of cookie dough towards the finish. It's a powerhouse of flavors and complexity, making it a must-try for any rum aficionado. Personally, I found it exceptionally more balanced and pleasurable than its direct competitors, with a smoothness that’s rare in overproof rums.
