Lustau Black Rum Sherry Rum 70cl

Lustau Black Rum is a rum from the Dominican Republic that is distinguished by its particular aging process, in which Caribbean and Jerez traditions merge. It is a premium product of the Luis Caballero Group, which has managed to combine the experience of Dominican rum masters with the expertise of Bodegas Lustau in Jerez.

A Unique Aging Process

The uniqueness of this rum lies in its double aging. First, it is aged in American oak barrels, which gives it a dark color and a robust character. Subsequently, and this is where the key lies, it undergoes a second aging in Lustau barrels that previously contained Pedro Ximénez wine. This final step is what differentiates it from most rums, as it gives it sweet notes and a very complex aromatic profile.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: A dark and brilliant mahogany color.

• Nose: The aroma is complex and very attractive. Notes of vanilla, crème brûlée and chocolate mingle with aromas of ripe fruits and spices.

• Palate: In the mouth it is smooth, sweet and full-bodied. It has an extraordinary balance between sweetness and depth of flavors, and a long and harmonious finish.

Pairing and Service

Thanks to its complexity and smoothness, Lustau Black Rum is an ideal rum to enjoy neat or on the rocks. Its flavor profile makes it perfect for pairing with:

• Desserts: Especially chocolate desserts, such as a coulant or a brownie.

• Cured cheeses and nuts.

• After-dinner: It is perfect to enjoy after the meal.

It is recommended to serve it in a low wide glass to better appreciate its aromas and color.
