24 años Tawny Cask Finish 44,6%vol. - El Ron del Artesano

Fullbodied and heavy Panama Rum

The Artesano 24 años from the Single Cask 119-19, bottled in April 2024, matured for 10 years tropically and just over 4 years continentally. It spent the continental maturation in an ex-tawny port cask and was given its finishing touches here. It is neither sweetened nor artificially colored.

The color indicates the age on the one hand, but also the finish on the other, a fine mahogany tone with a touch of copper. The viscosity also promises a lot of texture and body, as it flows almost oily through the glass.

The bouquet shows a lot of marzipan and walnut at first, followed by a good portion of seasoned oak with a light toast note and a fruity component of dried dates. A hint of leather and polish comes with a little oxygen and gives it even more depth.

On the palate, the 24yo starts off sweet on the tip of the tongue for a short time and then immediately shows its full potential. It opens up wide as soon as it touches the tongue and presents an incredible spiciness and power. The 44.6% vol suits it very well and it is reminiscent of a mixture of nut biscuits with nougat and a hint of wood smoke from the long storage. The note of dates is still there, although the nut aromas now predominate. You could call it an explosion of flavor, because this Artesano rum starts with a short touchdown on the tongue and then immediately goes into aromatic breadth, leaving a long, spicy aftertaste and a fine softness and maturity in the finish.

Have fun and enjoy this special rum.
