El Rum Old Fashioned es la versión de ron del clásico Old Fashioned, usando ron en lugar de bourbon para añadir un sabor tropical único. Azúcar, bitters y ron se armonizan para crear un sabor dulce y complejo, con una guarnición de piel de lima que añade frescor.
History & Origins
The Old-Fashioned is widely considered one of the oldest cocktails in American bartending, with documented recipes appearing in the mid-19th century. The rum variation emerged as bartenders adapted the formula to different base spirits, a common practice throughout cocktail history. The precise origin of the Rum Old-Fashioned is disputed, but rum-based riffs on the classic have appeared in bartending guides since the early 20th century.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: High-proof rum and lime peel deliver an intense, tropical-citrus nose layered over a faint bitters spice. Palate: Bold and spirit-forward, with light rum providing a clean sugarcane sweetness balanced by bitters and the sharp citrus oil of lime peel; the 151 float adds a fiery intensity. Finish: Long, warm, and drying, with lingering bitters and lime zest.
Pro Tip
Float the 151-proof rum gently over the back of a bar spoon to form a distinct, aromatic top layer that adds drama and intensity.
