Cadenhead's 1999 Sancti Spiritus Cask Strength CMA 17yo 62.2% 700ml is a distinctive rum distilled at the Paraíso distillery in Sancti Spiritus, Cuba, in 1999. Aged for 17 years and bottled at cask strength in April 2016 by the esteemed Cadenhead's brand, this rum embodies the rich heritage and craftsmanship synonymous with Cuban rums. Its yellow/old gold hue, complemented by thick pearls and thin streaks, hints at the complexity within. On the nose, this rum reveals a captivating blend of citrus notes, tropical fruit, and floral aromas, underscored by hints of vanilla, solvents, and soap. The initial sip offers a sweetness that quickly transitions to a robust bittersweet profile, featuring flavors of brown sugar, green apple, citrus, coffee, and baking spices. The finish is long-lasting, with lingering sweetness accompanied by licorice, molasses, vanilla, and a touch of lime, all wrapped in a persistent bitterness. While some may find its high alcohol content and intense sour notes overpowering, others will appreciate its complexity and versatility, particularly in cocktails like a classic Cuba Libre. This rum is a fine example of Cuban style with its well-rounded profile and intricate flavor layers, making it a worthy addition to any rum enthusiast's collection.
