The Don Pancho Origenes 8yo is a premium rum meticulously crafted in Panama by the legendary Francisco Fernandez Perez, who boasts over six decades of expertise in rum making. This exceptional spirit has matured for eight years in American white oak bourbon barrels, resulting in unparalleled fruit complexity and depth of character. The rum’s delicate aromas of wood, sea, vanilla, cocoa, and nuts are perfectly complemented by subtle notes of sweet tea, honey, moist dates, and figs, creating an elegant and refined profile. The Origenes 8yo can be savored neat, allowing its exquisite mouthfeel and harmonious flavors to shine, or used as a sophisticated base for cocktails. Each sip reveals a rich and balanced experience, with dry fruit and sophisticated bourbon undertones, embodying both history and modernity. This rum is a testament to traditional craftsmanship and innovation, delighting any rum connoisseur with its harmony of flavors and aromas.
When first poured, the rum may emit a slightly chemical scent (similar to glue). Allowing it to rest for about 10 minutes helps dissipate this aroma, revealing the excellent quality of the rum.
This versatile rum can be enjoyed neat, allowing you to fully appreciate its delicate and complex flavors, or used as a refined base for a variety of cocktails.
