Rum prohibido solera 12 years reserva

“El Ron Prohibido” has its roots in the 18th century, when Spanish ships arriving in America loaded with wine reserves, instead of returning to Spain with empty barrels, began to fill the barrels with the “Chinguirito”, that is Mexican rum. The question of “Chinguirito”, enriched by the sweet notes released by wood barrels, became so high that the King of Spain Philip V of Bourbon was forced to prohibit its production, in order to protect the internal trade of Spanish distillates and to limit the disastrous effects caused to society by excessive drinking. This was the reason why the Mexican "Chinguirito" was banned from 1700 to 1796.

“El ron Prohibido” is no longer prohibited and identifies an original Rum today, which comes back to light in its original recipe, for the lucky fans of the real Mexican rum. Sharpened for twelve years following the Solera dynamic ageing method, El Ron Prohibido is harmoniously played on sweet/black contrast. In fact, a small amount of wine is added.
