Description
Ron San Miguel Gold Special is a distinguished expression from Ecuador’s first liquor industry, founded in 1881. This “Gold Special” is crafted through a unique high-altitude aging process in the majestic cellars of Cuenca. At over 8,000 feet above sea level, the lower oxygen levels and consistent temperatures allow the rum to mature gracefully, resulting in a purity and smoothness that is difficult to achieve in tropical lowlands.The spirit is a masterful blend of light and aromatic rums that have rested in American oak barrels previously used for premium bourbon (specifically Jack Daniels and Jim Beam). This interaction imparts a rich, soft golden color and a complex array of flavors. It is an incredibly versatile rum, offering enough character to be enjoyed neat or on the rocks, while possessing the perfect balance of sweetness and oak to elevate classic cocktails like the Cuba Libre or a refined Rum Old Fashioned.
