Montanya Oro is aged for one year in an American White Oak barrel that previously held Laws Colorado Whiskey. Because the barrel is wet and fresh from the whiskey, the Oro is more full-bodied and picks up more flavour from the oak than our Platino. This rum is never carbon filtered, so the natural colour of the barrel remains, along with a slight bit of colour from the tiniest touch of local honey (the honey’s acidity brings out the natural flavours of the rum and the barrel). Unlike many dark aged rums, the Oro never receives added sugar, molasses caramel or artificial colourings/flavourings. Flavours prominent in the Oro include red chili, coffee, caramel, vanilla, pineapple, and chocolate.
