Ron Cartavio Solera 12

Untraditional dark rum from the Ron Cartavio brand, which comes from Peru. If you've never had a rum from Peru before, this warming delight should be a great introduction.

It was produced in the hacienda of Captain Don Domingo de Cartavio, thanks to which it got its name. It is a blend of several 5 to 15 year old Peruvian rums, which were carefully and very expertly mixed using the Solera method. This method is known from the Spanish wineries in the city of Jerez, where the world-famous sherry is also matured.

The rum comes in a very nice gift box.
