More about the Producer
My experience was divided into three phases: the first smell, you can not give to hear the emitted vapors especially when this rum is served in a heated glass. In the second phase, during tasting warn the typical flavor of the distillate, a bit of alcohol than it is felt even in the nostrils to speak. Finally comes the aftertaste that seems so much wood that has aged. Perfect if accompanied by dark chocolate and cocoa beans.
