Malecon Esplendida 1992

Premium Panama Aged Rum Malecon Esplendida 1992 is a premium aged rum produced by Malecon in Panama. It is made from molasses and aged for 25 years in oak casks, resulting in a rich and complex flavor profile. The rum has notes of vanilla, caramel and toasted oak, with a smooth and silky texture. It has a long, lingering finish with a hint of spice. This rum is best enjoyed neat or on the rocks, and pairs well with chocolate desserts and cigars. Although Malecon is a Cuban-styled rum, it is actually a Panamanian rum. The rum is produced in collaboration with Varela Hermanos Bodegas de America SA. Malecon makes several different types of rum. All the rum is made from molasses and there are several levels and many differences in the rooms. Varela Hermanos is located in the town of Pesé in the south of central Panama. In 1908, the then owner, Don José Varela Blanco, established the first sugar factory. Later, in 1936, the rum factory opened, which has been producing high-quality rum ever since. Malecon is a bit drier than its brother Malteco, but more complex. There are generally 3 categories: ‘Rum-Reservas’, ‘Rum Rare Proof’ and ‘Rum Seleccion Esplendida’. The Reservas are aged rums aged 10-25 years. Rare Proof is bottled at cask strength, which varies slightly depending on where the rum is aged and what percentage it entered the cask at. There is a 13-year-old, a 17-year-old and a 20-year-old, as well as a number of vintage rareproof rums, which were bottled for the first time in 2021 with the vintage of 2014. Seleccion Esplendida is vintage rum from specially selected vintages, selected by Marco Savio, phenomenal rum is available here. Finally, Malecon makes a sweeter Licor de Ron at 35%, which is incredibly popular due to its complexity and sweetness.
