RUM NATION - Peruano 8 years - 42%
Fabio Rossi, a passionate expert born in 1961, holds a degree in oenology from Conegliano in Italy, a region renowned for its viticultural expertise. Coming from a family deeply rooted in the wine and spirits trade since 1956, his father Mario Jr. was the first importer in Italy of prestigious brands such as Laphroaig, Barbancourt Rum, as well as several great Bordeaux Crus and exceptional champagnes like Salon. Immersed from a young age in the world of fine wines and quality spirits, Fabio naturally turned to his own personal selections of exceptional whiskies and rums.
In 1990, during a trip to Scotland, Fabio visited numerous distilleries, tasted various casks, and concluded key business agreements. During his visits to whisky warehouses, he discovered many old rum casks from British Guiana and Jamaica, carefully stored alongside Single Malts. Under the wise guidance of Mr. Samaroli, an essential master of rum, he learned the subtleties of rum styles and the initial steps to launch his own venture in this field. Thus, he acquired his first casks which he bottled, gradually building a unique selection of the best rums from different terroirs. Rum Nation was officially born in 1999, embodying a quest for excellence and authenticity.
The philosophy of Rum Nation is based on a rigorous production method: acquiring young rums and aging them locally in their original tropical climate for 6 to 8 years before transferring them to Europe for further refinement. This protocol ensures ideal maturation, allowing the aromas to fully develop. The labels do not mention the names of the distilleries but highlight the geographical origin areas, thus emphasizing the richness of rum terroirs.
This Peruano edition benefited from a tropical aging of 8 years, giving it remarkable aromatic complexity, characterized by rich and spicy, fruity, and woody notes.
