The 23 Year expression of PANAMA-PACIFIC RUM is crafted with freshly-distilled sugarcane aged in used American Oak bourbon whiskey casks for 3 years, followed by a 20-year finishing in used Tennessee and Canadian rye whiskey casks that have been toasted. This interplay between barrels creates a perfect balance between the rum's natural qualities and the flavors imparted by the oak. The rum offers delightful aromas of vanilla, tannins, and toasted sugar, complemented by hints of coconut, banana, and cherry-almond pastry. On the palate, a delicate caramel butter flavor gives way to a warm, rich wood taste, with notes of cherry-almond and crushed cacao nibs. The finish lingers with delicious dessert flavors fading into a subtle woodiness.
