Don Q Gran Reserva XO | 70cl Giftbox

The Crown Jewel of Puerto Rican Craftsmanship

Don Q Gran Reserva XO represents the pinnacle of the Serrallés family’s distilling heritage. Produced in the historic town of Ponce, Puerto Rico, this expression is a masterclass in balance, designed for the serious rum enthusiast. It is celebrated for its unique ability to remain refined and dry on the palate while simultaneously offering a lusciously sweet aromatic profile.

The spirit is a sophisticated blend of rums aged between 3 and 12 years in American white oak barrels. A small portion of Solera-aged rum is also included in the marriage to provide an extra layer of "mother-cask" depth. This meticulous ageing process in the tropical heat results in a rum that is incredibly smooth, possessing the complexity usually reserved for high-end cognacs or scotches.

Key Features and Elegant Presentation

Aged Versatility: Combines younger rums for vibrancy with older reserves (up to 12 years) for deep, tannic structure and oak character.
Masterful Balance: Achieves a rich, honeyed mouthfeel without the addition of artificial sugars, maintaining the "dry" finish prized by purists.
Premium Giftbox: Presented in a sophisticated giftbox, making it the definitive choice for special occasions or as a centerpiece for a premium rum collection.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: A complex bouquet of baked apples, citrus peel, and roasted nuts, underscored by a rich vein of vanilla and toasted oak.
- Palate: Harmonious and silky. Initial notes of honey and dried fruits give way to deeper flavors of dark chocolate, tobacco, and old leather.
- Finish: Long and evolving. It leaves a lasting impression of brown spices and charred oak with a clean, dry fade.

Serving Suggestions

The Solitary Sip: To truly appreciate the 12 years of craftsmanship, serve this rum neat in a snifter at room temperature.
The XO & Ginger: For a refreshing but premium long drink, add a splash of high-quality ginger beer and a large wedge of lime. The ginger amplifies the rum's natural spice without masking the delicate oak.
The "Old Fashioned" Upgrade: Use a single dash of orange bitters and a barspoon of honey syrup to create a luxurious, velvet-textured cocktail.
Dessert Pairing: Complements rich dark chocolate tarts, aged Manchego cheese, or a handful of glazed pecans.
