Panama (Haas Brothers)

A Spanish-style molasses-derived rum made at the Ingenio San Carlos distillery in Panama. Beginning with estate grown sugarcane from the famed Panameño growing region of La Provincia de Herrera, small batches of molasses are fermented using special proprietary yeast strains. The fragrant cane mash is then distilled in antique copper stills to concentrate flavors and remove impurities, before being rested in American oak casks to develop beautiful aromas, textures and flavors. 

Panama Pacific, 9yr Rum - 94 proof Aromas of bitter vanilla and creamy, toasted muscovado sugar, big butter and wood, almost a creme brûlée, with juicy fruit and coconut banana cherry/almond subtleties.

The palate opens with a delicate sweet butter and caramel entry. Delicious dessert notes fade into wood in the finish. Panama Pacific, 23yr Rum - 84 proof Aromas of ripe butter, subtle flan caramel custard and white raisin above dried fruit and spices. The palate opens with sweet caramel that quickly gives way to charred wet wood, with white raisin close behind. Nice long buttery woody notes linger in the long finish.
