This family run producer uses old Jack Daniels barrels to age this rum on average for 5 years. Very smooth and mouth filling and a terrific value for an aged rum. Ron Abuelo Añejo is a blend of selected aged rums, married to perfection by our Master Blender. Slowly distilled and patiently matured in small oak barrels, it is distinguished by its mellow, rich, and smooth flavor. With the Ron Abuelo Añejo Limited Edition Rum, the long-established Ron Abuelo brand presents its first "Art of Rum" Sleeve Collection. This special limited edition combines Panamanian rum culture with modern art, making the bottle a true eye-catcher. The first edition was designed by renowned Panamanian artist Insano, whose colorful design reflects Panama's extraordinary biodiversity. Behind the brand is the Varela Hermanos distillery, whose history dates back to 1908. For more than a century, Ron Abuelo has stood for high-quality rum specialties from Panama and is now one of the country's most famous rum brands. The decorative gift packaging makes this edition particularly appealing to collectors, rum enthusiasts, and anyone looking to discover an exceptional bottling from Central America. Tasting Notes: Aroma starts off sweet, with fresh fruit and berries in the front and vanilla and caramel layered behind it. The nose is initially dry with wood notes in the lead. After a few minutes of airing this rum begins to show beautiful brown sugar, toasted coconut, brown baking spices, fruit cake, and vanilla cream with accents of sandalwood, and butterscotch. The palate is rich, boasting with burnt brown sugar, baking spices and subtle hints of fruit. The palate echoes the nose delivering a classy aged rum with impeccable proportions. 40% ABV / 80 Proof 750 ML
