The heart of this exquisite rum lies in the casks it matures in. Handcrafted by none other than Rafael, a third-generation cask maker from Spain. Rafael’s meticulous touch is more than craftsmanship; it’s a legacy. These barrels, aged for over half a century while soaking in the essence of Oloroso Sherry, have been rejuvenated by the delicate artistry of Casknolia. The result is a symphony of flavors as old as time itself, enriched by the history they hold.
