Distiller Notes
In the wine world, it is well known that in certain years an ideal balance of heat and rain conspires to create a legendary vintage Champagne or the most nuanced Bordeaux. The same climatic dance happens in Panama, where once or twice a decade the perfect weather conditions craft a superlative rum that is the purest expression of one of the most unique terroirs on earth.
For SelvaRey Owner’s Reserve, legendary Maestro Ronero hand-selects the best rums from across the best vintages in his collection to create the ultimate blend. As they crafted a rare blend from the most prestigious casks, Bruno personally designed the label, bottle and gifting box.
From pirate life on the open sea to Caribbean island paradises, perhaps no other spirit evokes such a romantic history as Rum. Made through fermentation and distillation of molasses or the fresh-pressed juice of sugar cane, Rums range from 20% to over 70% alcohol and come in a variety of tones from clear to dark. Highest quality Rums are generally produced in pot stills and aged in wood, while less expensive Clear or “White” Rums are produced in column stills and bottled without barrel aging. Naturally, Rums form the base of tropical cocktails like Daquiris and Mojitos.
