A dark rum by the Ingenio San Carlos Distillery in Herrara, Panama. Crafted from a proprietary sugar cane, harvested & transformed into grade-A molasses. The molasses undergoes fermentation with an in-house proprietary, locally grown yeast. 20th century American Copper & Brass Works copper stills distill the molasses into Rum. The result is then filtered through cellulose plates & then cold filtered. The Rums in the blend can range anywhere from 8 years of age & is blended to 90 proof. It is then aged in used American ex-Bourbon barrels, sourced from Kentucky.
It has a rich birth with notes of toasty oak spices & vanilla; while a rich & oaky life adds notes of nutmeg, dried fruit, pepper & hints of bourbon & sugarcane; that led to a long, dry & delicate death. December 2018 / March 2019 / February / March 2021
