Heffron 5Y Rum 38% 0,7 l

Heffron 5Y Rum is a Panamanian rum created as a tribute to the Czechoslovak Legionnaires, their courage, and their long journey back to their homeland after World War I. Panama is symbolically linked to this story, as part of the Legionnaires’ return journey across the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans passed through this Central American country.

Production:

The base is a five-year-old rum from Panama, aged in carefully selected bourbon barrels. These barrels impart a delicate vanilla-caramel note, a woody character, and a pleasantly balanced profile. The rum has a silky, slightly sweet mouthfeel, yet retains a drier flavor with more pronounced notes of oak and tropical fruit.

Tasting Profile:

Aroma: Smooth and elegant, with notes of honey, light smoke, spices, and ripe tropical fruit.

Taste: Delicate, drier, and slightly sweet, with pronounced woody notes, hints of vanilla and caramel, and a finish of tropical fruit.

Finish: Woody, pleasantly dry, and fruity, with a finish reflecting its aging in bourbon barrels.

Serving:

Heffron 5Y Rum is best enjoyed on its own, but thanks to its approachable style, it can also be used in simpler rum-based mixed drinks.

Heffron 5Y Rum is ideal for rum lovers as well as those who appreciate the Czechoslovak historical legacy of the Heffron brand. It is best enjoyed at room temperature, when its aroma, smoothness, and woody, fruity finish fully unfold.
