Bundle La Hechicera No.1 + Zaya Gran Reserva
The experimental series of La Hechicera rum No.1 Muscat Cask-Finished has a varied history of aging in oak barrels, which were filled to the very top with the best nutmeg wine. It was a memorable experiment that was accidentally discovered.
One of the brand's owners, Miguel Riascos Sr., once filled 16 large barrels of barrel with his favorite nutmeg to find out what to do with it. After 12 years, his son Miguel Riascos Jr. discovered in the inventory a remarkable wine with excellent tones of walnuts, plums and leather, ripening under the relentlessly warm climate of Colombian Barranquila. He emptied the barrels of wine. As is customary with special series, he used them again to fill them with La Hechicera rum at the age of 12-21 years.
The result is an experimental limited edition of La Hechicera Muscat rum, distinguished by a final maturation of several months in barrels filled several times - first after rum and then after nutmeg wine.
Maturation history - profile of used barrels:
until 2003 - bourbon matured in barrels

Discover the unique all-round rum Zaya Gran Reserva! Premium rum worth enjoying in every way. It is a dark rum that has depth, complexity and a bit of mystery.
In many languages and cultures, Zaya is named for a "triumphant woman." However, the Zaya Gran Reserva rum recipe remains covered with a veil of mystery. All that is known is that it consists of a precise mixture of 12 rare rums from Trinidad and Tobago so that it faithfully follows in the footsteps of the former rum that this brand once produced in Guatemala. Each of the rums used is made from virgin sugar cane from the islands and personally selected by master blender Carl Homer. Fermented cane juice is distilled twice in copper cauldrons and then matured in medium-tanned white oak barrels after whiskey and bourbon. The consistent production process has brought Zaya Gran Reserva rum a memorable taste and a number of well-deserved awards.
