Pampero Selección 1938 is a Venezuelan dark rum that represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship from the Pampero brand. It was created in 1938 by Alejandro Hernández, the son of a fisherman who was the first to introduce the aging process of rum in oak barrels in Venezuela. This rum is a blend of distillates from local sugarcane, aged 5 to 6 years in bourbon and sherry casks, which gives it a complex and harmonious flavor.
The aroma of Pampero Selección 1938 is gentle and sweet, with hints of vanilla, fruit, tobacco, and oak. The taste is round and balanced, with notes of cocoa, honey, sherry, and fruit. The finish is long and pleasant, with a touch of tobacco and vanilla. The color of the rum is dark amber, indicating its long aging in oak barrels.
This rum is ideal for slow sipping, whether neat or on the rocks, and also serves as an excellent base for premium cocktails. Due to its balance and complexity, it has received multiple awards, including a gold medal at the Rum and Cachaça Masters 2022 and the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2022. Pampero Selección 1938 is available in a 0.7 l bottle with an alcohol content of 40 % and offers an exceptional experience for any rum enthusiast.
