Cihuatan Indigo 8 Y - Rum El Salvador
Cihuatan Indigo 8 Y is a true invitation to travel, a vibrant homage to the culture and heritage of the Mayan civilization of El Salvador.
This unique cuvée owes its name to the indigo color, an essential component of the famous "Mayan blue," a hue found on the frescoes of ancient temples buried in the jungle.
Distilled and aged in the heart of the Cihuatán valley, this rum reveals all the authenticity and richness of an unknown terroir.
Each bottle is adorned with Mayan iconography, bearing witness to the deep history and tradition of this civilization.
TASTING NOTES :
NOSE: A light and delicate attack with an initial scent of roasted wood evoking nougat embedded with nuts. Subtle citrus touches add a tangy freshness and refined bitterness that accentuate a distinguished and complex profile.
PALATE : On the palate, Cihuatan Indigo 8 Y unveils a harmonious and indulgent palette of flavors. Intense notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, and cappuccino are distinguished, accompanied by a milky sweetness of cream. Hazelnut and dulce de leche (caramel paste) aromas delicately blend with an exotic touch of lemongrass, creating a captivating gustatory symphony.
FINISH : The finish is long and smooth, marked by reminiscences of dark chocolate and exotic fruits, dissipating into a subtle sweetness of hazelnut and vanilla. A rich sensory experience that leaves a lasting and pleasant impression.
