Rum Malecon Selecciòn Esplendida Vintage 1991 70 cl. 40%

The extraordinary legacy

Malecon Esplendida 1991 is a floating work of art, the fruit of thirty years of patience and artisanal know-how. Distilled in 1991, this exceptional rum derives its richness from unprecedented maturation in oak casks that have housed other spirits. This long stay in barrel gives it a remarkable aromatic complexity, a real journey through time and history.

A refined treasure

This jewel from the Malecon distillery embodies the quintessence of rum mastery. Malecon Esplendida 1991, selected with the greatest attention, is the result of a unique alchemy between alcohol and precious wood. Its long maturation makes it a rarity, a rum that is both rich and complex, intended for the most demanding enthusiasts.

Enchanting aromatic palette

Malecon Esplendida 1991 reveals intoxicating aromas of salted butter caramel, pepper and lemon peel on the nose, a prelude to a unique tasting experience. On the palate it unfolds delicate notes of poppy seed and peach, enhanced by a hint of citrus, all wrapped in a sweet woody embrace. Each sip is an invitation to discover the many facets of its strong character, a sensory journey not to be missed.

Malecón

Rum specialist Marco Savio of Savio Trading Srl in Aosta, Italy is the founder of Malecon rum. The rum is produced according to the traditional Cuban method from the Caribbean Spirits Panama Distillery and offers a unique range of aromas and impressions and – depending on the rum – can be stored for 25 years or more.

Although Malecon is a Cuban-styled rum, it is actually a Panamanian rum. The rum is produced in collaboration with Varela Hermanos Bodegas de America SA. Malecon makes several different types of rum. All the rum is made from molasses and there are several levels and many differences in the rooms. Varela Hermanos is located in the town of Pesé in the south of central Panama. In 1908, the then owner, Don José Varela Blanco, established the first sugar factory. Later, in 1936, the rum factory opened, which has been producing high-quality rum ever since. Malecon is a bit drier than its brother Malteco, but more complex. There are generally 3 categories: ‘Rum-Reservas’, ‘Rum Rare Proof’ and ‘Rum Seleccion Esplendida’. The Reservas are aged rums aged 10-25 years. Rare Proof is bottled at cask strength, which varies slightly depending on where the rum is aged and what percentage it entered the cask at. There is a 13-year-old, a 17-year-old and a 20-year-old, as well as a number of vintage rareproof rums, which were bottled for the first time in 2021 with the vintage of 2014. Seleccion Esplendida is vintage rum from specially selected vintages, selected by Marco Savio, phenomenal rum is available here. Finally, Malecon makes a sweeter Licor de Ron at 35%, which is incredibly popular due to its complexity and sweetness.12
