The S.B.S. Cuba 2013 is the inaugural release in the Single Barrel Selection series from Cuba, distinguished by its finish in a Pedro Ximenez Sherry cask. This exceptional rum was distilled in 2013 at an enigmatic distillery in Cuba and aged for five years before being bottled by World Class Spirits in March 2019 for the 1423 Single Barrel Selection range. This single cask rum produced a limited yield of just 257 bottles.
Crafted from molasses and distilled in a pot still, the rum exhibits a light, amber-gold hue. The nose is well-balanced and nuanced, presenting an enticing bouquet of nuts, vanilla, and chocolate-covered raisins, which evolves into aromas of red fruit jelly after aeration. On the palate, the influence of the PX cask is unmistakable, offering flavors of juicy, black plums and wet oak, followed by a subtle bitterness and a dry finish. The PX cask finish perfectly complements the Spanish-style rum, resulting in a harmonious, light, and smooth spirit.
