Description
Cozumel Mayan Spiced Rum
Aged 5 years 40% Alc/Vol (80 proof) Handblown glass bottle. Each bottle is a work of art, no two bottles are alike.
TASTING NOTES
A tribute to traditional Mayan cuisine. Remarkably aromatic. Subtle spiced bouquet, very harmonic. Full bodied, spicy note with a blend of chocolate and citrus stands out with a vanilla finish. Dry with delicious aftertaste. Along with the spicy note one can distinguish the maturity of the spirit.
An intense finish that lingers nicely.
Rated 95 by the Tasting Panel
“In shiny metallic mosaic, the bottle is one of the most magnificent collector’s items we have seen. The 80-proof liquid is also outstanding, with scents of ginger and succulent spiced apricot; on the palate, it’s exceptionally balanced, with notes of clove, orange peel, and cinnamon. Banana, peach, and vanilla musk pick up the pace through the finish.”
