The El Ron del Artesano 8 Años Ruby Port Cask Finish Panama Rum 43,4% Vol. 0,7 l is a Panama Rum full of character, characterised by its careful maturation and a special port cask finish. This 8-year matured rum from Panama is part of El Ron del Artesano's core range and is fully aged for eight years without a Solera system. The premium rum first matures for seven years in former American oak bourbon barrels before an additional refinement in a Portuguese Ruby Port Cask. This Ruby Port cask finish gives the rum a special aromatic depth and ensures an elegant combination of fruity, spicy and sweet nuances. The transparent production philosophy is particularly noteworthy: no sugar is added and careful barrel preparation keeps the sugar content below 5 g/litre, allowing Panama Rum to retain its natural character.


The combination of classic bourbon barrel maturation and additional storage in a Ruby Port Cask creates a multi-layered aged rum from Panama that combines fruitiness and elegance. The nose already reveals intense fruit flavours reminiscent of cherries and dried plums. With a little time in the glass, vanilla and fine notes of orange peel also unfold. On the palate, El Ron del Artesano 8 Años Ruby Port Cask Finish is soft and silky with a harmonious balance of cherry fruit, vanilla, cream sweets and cherry cake, which are characterised by the barrel maturation. Only in the finish does the rum reveal its pleasantly integrated alcohol structure, which fades away gently and balanced.
