The Mombacho 1989 Armagnac Wood is a distinguished 19-year-old rum that captivates with its profound and intricate aroma profile. Initially, the nose is greeted by robust toasted wood and nutty notes, reminiscent of an oxidative wine with hints of butter and rancio. The rich, dark color of the rum suggests a significant presence of coffee, contributing to an overall empyreumatic ambiance filled with roasted, grilled, and smoked nuances.
On the palate, this rum reveals a decadent experience marked by caramelized nuts and a touch of burnt sugar. The toasted wood flavor harmonizes with a smooth blend of caramel, coffee, cocoa, and molasses, all perfectly balanced without being overwhelmed by the oak. As the rum aerates, its flavors intensify, with the coffee and burnt caramel notes becoming more pronounced, the nutty flavors evolving into a sandy texture, and the buttery tones transitioning to black molasses and tar.
What truly sets this rum apart is its unique aging process. After spending 17 years maturing in bourbon barrels, the rum was transferred to Armagnac barrels for the final two years. This distinctive finishing imparts a unique set of aromas from the Armagnac, a brandy made from dry white wine, adding an extra layer of complexity to the spirit.
Produced by Mombacho Ron in the fertile volcanic lands of Nicaragua, the rum benefits from the unique climate and terroir of the region, contributing to its exceptional aromatic richness. The Mombacho 1989 Armagnac Wood 19yo 43% 700ml is a complex and well-balanced rum that promises to enchant any spirit connoisseur.
