Pampero Aniversario Reserva Exclusiva (70cl, 40%)

A Venezuelan rum in the Spanish style, bottled at 40% in a 700ml bottle. It is a blend drawn from Pampero's rum reserve, created in 1963 for the company's 25th anniversary, and carries the Ron de Venezuela D.O.C. designation. A light base spirit is obtained by triple distillation in a column still, then matured in casks and blended. The bottle comes in a leather pouch inspired by the traditional Tapara. The nose brings together wood and nuts with cinnamon, vanilla and caramel, along with dark fruit cake, a fruity citrus note and a hint of rosemary. The palate is full-bodied and soft, with sweetness, warmth and an oily texture. The finish is dry and lingering, very soft and full.
