The Hidden Loot Dark Reserve is a distinctive and striking spiced rum produced by the renowned Naud family, who have been distilling in the Cognac region since 1923. This particular rum is a collaboration with a distillery in Panama, where a molasses rum is aged for two years before being shipped to the Naud family. Here, a maceration of ten spices and fruits is applied, resulting in a complex and intriguing flavor profile.
The spices and fruits used in the maceration process include tonka bean, bird's eye chili, bigarade orange, vanilla, sweet orange, coconut, nutmeg, and cinnamon. These flavors come together to create a rum that is both robust and sophisticated, with notes of milk chocolate, honey, and a subtle earthy undertone of cardamom.

The Naud family has a reputation for producing high-quality, unusual spirits, and this rum is no exception. As an independent bottler of rum, the Naud family has established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the world of spirits.
