TASTING NOTES

COLOR: The rum presents a warm golden color with amber highlights, a hue that invites you to discover its complexity through its brightness. The density of the liquid as it moves in the glass suggests a robust body, which anticipates a rich taste experience.

NOSE: As the glass approaches, the initial fragrance is fruity and enveloping, highlighting the ripe sweetness of bananas and pineapple, accompanied by a touch of vanilla and a soft nuance of toasted caramel. As it aerates, spicy notes emerge, reminiscent of cinnamon and clove, complemented by a slight oaky presence that lends depth to the whole.

TASTE: On the palate, the rum is silky and round, with a perfect balance between smoothness and subtle complexity. Initial tropical fruit flavors intertwine with hints of honey and a touch of warm spice, while the oak contributes a toasty oak nuance that becomes more evident with each sip. The finish is lingering and pleasing, leaving a soft caramel sensation and a light liquorice note that invites further exploration.
