Description

Conde de 7 Anos comes from Conde de Cuba and sits in the lighter, cleaner Cuban tradition, a column still molasses rum bottled at a gentle 38%. Cuba is the home of the ron ligero archetype, built for smoothness and for cocktails, and this aims for that easy, approachable register rather than weight or intensity.

The profile centres on vanilla, brown sugar and dried fruit, with toffee adding a sweet impression and a burnt note on the nose. The finish brings dried figs alongside an alcoholic, slightly metallic edge that shows the youth of the spirit. It is a soft, sweet leaning Cuban pour with rougher corners than the polished end of the style, and it tends to suit casual sipping or a simple mixed drink more than close, neat scrutiny.
