Zafra 21 Year Rum 750ml
| Description: | History,. "From A to Zafra"-- this rum embodies the complete story of rum, from the harvest through the fermentation, distillation, aging and blending and finally the hands of the discerning consumer. While sometimes we tend to sip certain spirits at specific times of the year (for example, both rum and tequila are extremely enjoyable under a hot summer sun), more and more we find ourselves drinking and enjoying summery beverages during colder months. Perhaps this is with the intent of bringing a bit of light to the darker, colder climes (and who are we kidding-- we're in coastal California and haven't really ever experienced 'winter'), but really it's about wanting to taste the beauty that the sun ultimately started, in this case a few decades back in a sugar cane field somewhere in Panama. We tried Zafra Master Reserve again recently at a product lineup (hey-- someone has to do it!) and it's really a fantastic 21-year-old rum for an excellent price (rum, in general, offers some of the best values in liquor when it comes to aged spirits; try and buy a 21-year-old anything else for under $50). The Zafra 21 is the creation of a world-renowned master distiller/blender whose desire was to produce one of the finest rums from specially selected Panamanian stock-- we think they have succeeded marvelously. Zafra Master Reserve is 21 years old, delicate, sweet and intricately enjoyable. Tasting Notes,. Nose: The nose reveals tea, mincemeat, moist dates, subtle notes of allspice, caramelized honey, soft wood spice, leather and tobacco. Palate: All of these aromas are demonstrated cleanly with incredible acumen on the palate and evolve to include: maple glazed brown bread, clove, cinnamon, butterscotch and nutmeg. finish: slides quickly away to show sweet leather, well-aged tobacco, dark wood and warming baking spices in a saporous residue that gently disappears. Enjoy this Rum neat or on ice. |
