Cubaney Silver Plata Rum (700ml)

Just arrived from the Dominican Republic, Cubaney rums are produced by one of the most well-known of rum families (the Oliver’s) who began making rum in the early 19th century in Cuba, earning a place amongst the world’s best by the late 1860s. The Cuban revolution halted production and the family fled the country. It was not until the 1980s that the original formulas were re discovered and the family began reproducing rum with the help of Cuban Maestros Roneros in the Dominican Republic. Highly regarded amongst the region's distilleries, Cubaney's rums have been internationally acclaimed.

Tasting note: Crystal clear, slightly viscous appearance. Opens with powerful aromas of vanilla wafer biscuit becoming  more like vanilla custard with hints of icing sugar after exposure. A medium bodied profile repeats the vanilla custard as the opening sweetness is tempered by soft spices and a clean finish. Vanilla wafer biscuit aftertaste. Almost like a vanilla-flavoured rum. Pleasant enough but a little one dimensional.38% Alc./Vol.
