Panama Pacific Reserva Rum 15 años - The 15 Year expression is freshly-distilled sugarcane which is laid into used American Oak bourbon whiskey casks for initially for 3 years before a 12-year finishing in used Tennessee and Canadian rye whiskey casks that have been toasted, not charred. The interplay between these barrels maintains the desired balance between the rum’s intrinsic qualities and the characteristics introduced by the oak.
Tasting Notes: The 15 Year's nose opens with subtle fragrant pear notes that give way to aromas of raisin and pungent brown sugar. Rich black currant jam and brûlée caramel flavors unfold, leading into spice notes of ginger snaps and fresh-cracked black pepper. Butterscotch candy lingers on the soft, extended finish.
Aroma: Pear notes, raisin, brown sugar
Taste: Black currant jam, brûlée caramel
Finish: Soft, extended finish.

Authenticity - Jose Fernandez, the master distiller, ferments the molasses with a proprietary yeast partially extracted from pineapples. All expressions are straight-aged, and contain no caramel colours nor artificial flavourings
Quality - Freshly-harvested cane is crushed for its juice within 15 hours of harvest, then boiled & spun to separate the sweet and mineral-laden molasses for fermentation. The Reserva expressions are aged for additional years in used Tennessee & Canadian whiskey casks that have been toasted, rather than charred, to better retain the rum’s natural characteristics
Sustainability - Organically-grown Panameño estate sugarcane from the famed growing region of La Provincia de Herrera
