This is a premium rum from Venezuela. The suppliers describe this as having a complex spicy and rich aroma with a robust, sweet, smooth and warming taste. Apparently this is often drunk “El Ritual”: rum with lime, sugar and coffee.
A little background about Pampero rum... Pampero was created in 1938 by by the son of a fisherman Alejandro Hernandez. Hernandez original recipe introduced a distillation process unique to Venezuela. Hernandez harvested the finest sugar cane only in the incredibly humid dry season, to produce a smoother cut of alcohol. This alcohol blended with the local Carbonero spring water creates a distinctive deep, complex intense spirit with a surprisingly smooth rounded flavour. Pampero set the standard for rum production in Venezuela, and is proudly the first rum to be accredited ‘Anejo’, by the Venezuelan government.
