Ron Aldea 8 Barricas is a dark rum from La Palma, named for the selection of eight oak barrels that previously held red wine and are used for solera ageing. Eight-year-old rums are married, then rest a further eight months. It has a light, fruity character with restrained oak, vanilla, dark dried fruit, soft banana and a fine cinnamon note. Made from first-pressing sugar cane juice (guarapo) from La Palma, fermented up to 30 hours and distilled over wood fire, it is bottled at 40% without colouring.
Tasting Notes
Vanilla and oak with dark fruit notes reminiscent of dried figs and raisins.
Soft and rounded, with banana and mild sweetness accompanied by a hint of cinnamon.
Dry, with a lingering woody note.
