Don Q Añejo | 70cl

The Refined Soul of Puerto Rico: Clean, Complex, and Sustainable

Experience the smooth, balanced character of Puerto Rico’s #1 rum brand with Don Q Añejo. Produced by the Serrallés family at Destilería Serrallés—one of the most eco-friendly distilleries in the Caribbean—this rum is a testament to six generations of distilling expertise. Far from the heavy, molasses-laden style of some rums, Don Q Añejo is celebrated for its "clean" profile, achieved through a precise multi-column distillation process that removes heavy impurities while retaining the spirit's delicate heart.

Don Q Añejo is a masterful blend of rums aged for between 3 and 10 years in selected American white oak barrels. These barrels, previously used for bourbon, rest in rackhouses where the tropical heat and humidity of southern Puerto Rico accelerate the maturation process. The result is a bright, radiant rum that offers a sophisticated sipping experience, proving that a column-still rum can possess remarkable depth and "viscous" mouthfeel.

Key Features and Puerto Rican Heritage

Multiple Distillation Technique: Distilled five times to ensure extreme purity and a smooth, elegant texture that never overpowers the palate.
Aged in the Angel's Share: The tropical climate causes a 10% evaporation loss per year (the "Angel’s Share"), leading to a concentrated, honeyed flavor profile.
Eco-Conscious Craft: Produced at a distillery that captures its own CO2 and treats its wastewater, making it a choice that respects both the palate and the planet.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Subtle and inviting. Opens with whiffs of cooked vanilla and light oak, followed by powdery cocoa and a faint apricot fruitiness.
- Palate: A rich, mouth-coating texture. Expect layered flavors of dark caramel fudge, sugared pineapple, and oaty biscuits, balanced by a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Finish: Medium-length and warming. It concludes with a pepper-driven oaken fade and a lingering hint of vanilla custard.

Serving Suggestions

The Purist's Pour: Highly suited to being sipped neat or over a single large ice sphere. The lack of added sugars allows the natural oak and vanilla notes to shine through.
The Añejo Old Fashioned: Replace whiskey with 50ml of Don Q Añejo. Add two dashes of Angostura bitters and a barspoon of maple syrup. Garnish with a twist of orange to highlight the rum's citrus undertones.
The Premium "Rum & Ginger": Top with a spicy ginger beer and a squeeze of fresh lime. The rum’s caramel notes provide a perfect counterpoint to the ginger’s heat.
Island Pairing: Enjoy alongside grilled pork chops or a traditional Creole bread pudding to complement the rum's vanilla and spice characteristics.
