Products You May Like

Mezan produces a spread of rums from all of over the Caribbean and Latin America, and its newest is that this providing born in Panama, which begins with column-distilled molasses that’s aged in second-fill American white oak casks, then completed in Portuguese Moscatel wine casks. No sugar is added.

Wealthy and earthy on the nostril, the rum comes off as aromatically austere — toasty and woody, with no actual trace of the Moscatel ending. Hints of white pepper give the aroma some spice, however not one of the anticipated sweetness. That each one modifications on the palate, the place the rum shortly brightens up and showcases a distinctly candy edge, notes of sugar cookies, apricot jam, and delicate coconut water all making an entrance. The physique is modest and by no means syrupy, lithe however moderately quick relating to depth. It might actually use a bit extra energy in that division, although the end of recent barrel notes and a few lingering sesame oil is hardly offensive.

80 proof.
