Mombacho 15 años

Mombacho 15 anos is a column-distilled molasses ron from Nicaragua, carrying a stated fifteen years in ex-bourbon oak. It sits squarely in the Spanish tradition, where lightness of spirit and barrel time do most of the talking.

This bottling is sweetened, so it is honest to expect a rounded, mellow pour rather than a dry one. In the house style that usually means vanilla, caramel and soft toffee, with ex-bourbon oak adding a light spice frame. At 43% it has a touch more grip than many sweetened rons, but the overall impression should stay smooth and easygoing.
