More questions

Rhum Malteco Seleccion 1987 is an exceptional spirit distinguished by its origin and its aging method. This rum hails from the heart of Guatemala, where the tropical climate and fertile soil impart unique characteristics to the local sugarcane. Aged for several years in wooden barrels, Malteco Seleccion 1987 develops a rich and complex aromatic profile.

When poured into the glass, it showcases a deep amber color, a testament to its long rest in wood. On the nose, notes of vanilla and caramel immediately emerge, enriched by nuances of dried fruits such as plums and raisins, along with a light spicy touch of cinnamon and nutmeg. On the palate, Rhum Malteco is smooth and enveloping, with a perfect balance between sweetness and the toasted aromas of the wood, which blend into a warm and persistent finish.

Ideal for enjoying neat or with an ice cube to highlight all its nuances, Rhum Malteco Seleccion 1987 is an excellent choice for high-quality rum enthusiasts seeking a true sensory experience with every sip.
