Its rich heritage and flavorful depth make it a standout in the world of premium rums.
As you uncork the bottle, you are greeted by a rich and fruity aroma, with prominent notes of tropical fruits, banana, honey, and vanilla, complemented by subtle hints of coconut, ginger, and a touch of floral elements. The initial taste is fresh and vibrant, showcasing a symphony of ripe exotic fruits, dried bananas, and vanilla, elegantly balanced by spicy cinnamon and a touch of tobacco.
The well-integrated, full-bodied profile reveals a complex interplay of flavors, including chocolate, caramel, roasted notes, and a delicate oakiness. As you savor each sip, the lingering finish reveals spicy, woody undertones with hints of licorice and caramel, leaving a lasting impression of sophistication and refinement.
