The rum is reported to have been distilled from molasses in Cuba during the 1940s and 1950s, before the Cuban Revolution and the nationalisation of the country’s rum industry. After distillation, it was shipped to Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, where it was retained and matured in oak casks previously used for ageing Oloroso Sherry; younger aged rums were reportedly introduced over time under Valdespino’s traditional solera system. The exact bottling date of this bottle is undocumented; it is a post-1999 Valdespino\/Estevez release, imported into Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithout Box\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr style='margin: 30px 0; border: 0; border-top: 1px solid #eee;'\u003e\u003ch3 style='border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0; padding-bottom: 5px; margin-bottom: 15px; color: #333;'\u003ePrice Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4 style='color: #b12704; margin-bottom: 4px; font-size: 1.2em;'\u003eCash\/PayMe\/FPS Price: $3,880\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp style='font-size: 0.9em; color: #777; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 15px;'\u003e(Select PayMe\/FPS as payment method at checkout, and pay this amount directly)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4 style='color: #b12704; margin-bottom: 4px; font-size: 1.2em;'\u003eCredit Card Price: $4,020\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp style='font-size: 0.9em; color: #777; margin-top: 0;'\u003e(Select credit card at checkout and pay the website price)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr style='margin: 30px 0; border: 0; border-top: 1px solid #eee;'\u003e\u003ch3 style='border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0; padding-bottom: 5px; margin-top: 25px; color: #333;'\u003eOnline tasting note for reference:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style='line-height: 1.6; color: #444;'\u003eNose: Old and antique Cuban character with honeyed tropical fruit (mango), roasted coffee, dark chocolate and a hint of tobacco; notes of cane sugar, floral tones, oak, and a touch of sulphur, with some red grape and sherry influence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePalate: Sweet, oily and creamy with dried apricot, milk chocolate, brown sugar and roasted almond; light grassiness and cane juice, caramel, a mild rubbery\/sulphury note, and oaky tannins, showing sherry‑cask influence and a slightly bitter astringency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinish: Relatively short to medium but very expressive, with waves of grapes, sherry, vanilla, coffee, toasted caramel and toffee‑like sticky sweetness; smoky, lightly tannic, with lingering sulphury bitterness and a touch of acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cuban Rum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52571262517550,"sku":null,"price":4020.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/9975\/8260\/files\/valdespino-legend-of-cuban-rum-pre-1962-fine-old-rum-45-rum-4003348.jpg?v=1788666009","url":"https:\/\/alcoholpleasehk.com\/en\/products\/valdespino-legend-of-cuban-rum-pre-1962-fine-old-rum","provider":"Alcohol Please","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
