Ron Colón Salvadoreño is a unique brand in the rum industry, known for its innovative approach to blending and aging. The brand focuses on creating high-quality rums with distinctive flavor profiles by combining rums from El Salvador and Jamaica. The name "Ron Colón Salvadoreño" pays homage to Cristobal Colón (Christopher Columbus) and highlights its Salvadoran roots.
Ron Colon Blue Label Rum, specifically their High Proof Aged Rum, offers a rich and complex tasting experience. This Salvadoran rum features a blend that includes six-year-old column still rum from Licorera Cihuatan and various Jamaican pot still rums, creating a unique profile that balances traditional and distinctive flavors.
Nose:
The aroma is filled with grilled pineapple, crème brulee, lime zest, and a hint of Jamaican funk characterized by baked banana pudding. This combination results in a fruity and sweetly inviting nose.
Palate:
The initial taste brings a fiery touch of caramelized vanilla, quickly followed by grilled pineapple and banana. The complexity deepens with notes of dried tobacco leaf, black pepper, and dark roast coffee. The balance of flavors is maintained throughout, finishing with a light toasted oak note.
Finish:
It offers a long, dry finish where the fruit flavors notably linger, adding a pleasant closure to the tasting experience.
