The rich history and artisanal production method of this rum make it a true celebration of Mayan culture and Salvadoran craftsmanship.
TASTING NOTES :
NOSE: A pleasant balance between fruity and tangy aromas and slightly roasted notes. Soft spices, such as vanilla and cinnamon, settle delicately, offering a mellow aromatic profile. With aeration, notes of lemon syrup and pomegranate juice are revealed, followed by increasingly concentrated red fruits tinged with vanilla and lightly toasted sweet spices.
PALATE : Sweet and easy to drink, it opens with notes of grenadine with citrus accents. Soft spices take over mid-palate, accompanied by a sweet caramel that coats the taste buds. The fruits reappear, this time enhanced with roasted touches.
FINISH : Round and light, the finish is marked by vanilla that makes one last tour of the palate before gently fading away.
