The 18 Year Old Reserva Imperial from Rum Malecon brings rich notes of dark chocolate and tropical fruit to the table, balanced by a soft salinity developing in the background. The whole range is inspired by Cuban rum production methods, and was even named after a street in Havana.
Mango and grilled pineapple, dark chocolate truffle with a hint of praline, sea salt and cracked black pepper.
Picked a bottle of this up in a rum auction for £20 and at that price I was happy.... not got the flavour profile you’d expect from an 18yo!?
