The Mombacho 2003 Sauternes Finish 12yo rum is a smooth and velvety spirit with a rich and complex flavor profile. Distilled in 2003 and bottled in 2015, this exquisite rum has been aged for 12 years in the tropical climate of Nicaragua, and finished in a Sauternes wine cask. This unique aging process imparts a distinctive sweetness along with fruity and spicy notes that make this rum truly exceptional.
On the nose, the rum opens with rich aromas of toasted oak, coffee, and caramelized nuts. As it aerates, these toasted notes mellow into hints of toasted bread and a more refined woodiness. Eventually, the roasted character re-emerges, bringing with it nuances of blackened nuts and smoky coffee beans, as well as subtle accents of glue, vanilla, ester, and dark chocolate.
On the palate, the Mombacho 2003 Sauternes Finish is incredibly smooth and fluid, with a velvety texture that complements its complex flavor profile. The initial roasted and woody notes give way to softer, bitter floral scents, balanced by hints of brown sugar and a trace of glue. Each sip reveals layers of depth and character, making it a truly memorable drinking experience.
The finish is balanced and woody, lingering with a soft sweetness that can be attributed to the noble sugars absorbed from the Sauternes cask. This rum not only showcases the craftsmanship of Mombacho Ron but also stands as a testament to the artistry involved in perfecting such a luxurious spirit. Whether you're a collector or an aficionado, the Mombacho 2003 Sauternes Finish 12yo rum is a treasure worth adding to your collection.
