Selvarey Cacao Rum
Don Pancho spent about five years getting this chocolate rum right — and, Spirits Review reports, he did it without a single chemical additive or shortcut. SelvaRey is the Panamanian rum brand co-owned by Bruno Mars and made in Pesé, Herrera province, by Francisco "Don Pancho" Fernández, the Cuban-born former minister of rum who's the most revered blender in Central America. Cacao starts with a five-year-old rum aged in ex-bourbon oak, infused with local Panamanian chocolate, and bottled at 35% ABV; no artificial syrups or flavors, and Spirits Review noted the absence of the fake oils and binders that plague most flavored rums. Expect a tawny, red-gold pour with a nose of cocoa, vanilla, and the aged rum's caramel, opening into a smooth, moderately sweet palate where real chocolate — more dark cocoa than milk-chocolate candy — meets toffee and oak, finishing warm and clean. Paste called it over the top next to the nuanced Owner's Reserve, which is the point: this is the dessert bottle. Honest note: it's a flavored, lower-proof rum built for the after-dinner glass, not a sipper — what sets it apart from the mass-market chocolate rums is the aged Don Pancho base and the natural infusion. For a Chocolate Old Fashioned, an Espresso Martini, a Mudslide upgrade, over ice cream, or neat after dessert, it's chocolate with a master blender behind it.
