<p>In the northern Peruvian region of Lambayeque, a classic Spanish-style rum is still made exactly like when the distillery was founded in the first half of the 20th century.&nbsp;</p><p>Molasses from ripe sugar cane grown in extremely fertile soils and climate, ancient Scottish column stills, a solera-like aging in various kinds of barrels, and a timeless blending recipe.&nbsp;</p><p>A rum that is sweet, syrupy, with notes of figs and dates, but which retains freshness and a crisp and vibrant – but lightweight – character thanks to its young age.&nbsp;</p><p>Wonderful in cocktails or, even better, with a few ice cubes.</p><h3><strong>Tasting notes</strong></h3><p><strong>Appearance</strong><br>Deep amber with orange nuances.</p><p><strong>Nose</strong><br>Almost buttery, very sweet and smelling of fresh sugarcane juice. Toffee, milk chocolate.</p><p><strong>Palate</strong><br>Rich and intense, yet never sharp. The kind of full bodied intensity which coats the tongue and caresses it. Raisins, figs, dates, but the sweetness is matched by a hint of spiciness: cinnamon, pepper, and pleasant oak tannins.</p><p><strong>Finish</strong><br>Getting more peppery and oaky, but always velvety, syrupy and extremely sweet. Cola and black sugared tea.</p><p><strong>Comment</strong><br>An easy and sweet rum which doesn’t forget to have a robust body and to tingle the palate with a touch of spice.</p>
