Don Pancho 18 Years Rum (750Ml)

No stopover at 12 or 15 years like regular distillers would do. Don Pancho jumps straight to 18 years old for its mid-level expression. The nose is similar to the 8 year old.

The aromas of sea salt are hard to miss amidst all the dense, dried fruit and leathery character. On the tongue, such sweet nirvana. Here the denser, earthier character is very short-lived, and the fruitier elements take hold much more quickly.

Cola comes in earlier, along with more dried and fresh fruits raisins and figs before seguing into notes of butterscotch, vanilla, and chocolate syrup. The finish is a bit winey, almost Port-like with a rum raisin character that lingers in the throat.
