Distiller Notes
A blend of 5-year-old Bajon and Guyanese Rum that rest for an additional 3 years in casks of 20-year-old Palo Cortado, followed by 2 years in casks of 20-year-old Pedro Ximenez. Notes of dark amber with hints of fig and raisin. The palate is balanced with ripe fruit, tropical spice, smoky oak, and hints of sherry and a tobacco finish.

Tasting Panel
This rum merges Caribbean rum and notes of Pedro Ximénez grapes from Sherry casks to bring forth a deep, rich, dark amber spirit. The sweet parts of figs, dates and raisins are soaked up and anointed with a brown-sugar finish. The liquid’s perfume is sensual: a savory sandalwood with a hint of tamed spice.
Often referred to as a Gold Rum, an Aged Rum is one that has been aged in barrels, often Ex-Bourbon or White Oak before bottling. As the Rum continues to age, it draws more and more color and flavor from the wood, adding both body and complexity to the finished product. Aged Rums can be sipped neat or added to cocktails. They fall somewhere in between White and Dark Rums in terms of their respective strength of flavor.
