Valdespino Pre-1962 Legend Of Cuban Rum
70cl / 45%
A bottle of Legend Of Cuban Rum Pre 1962 imported and bottled by Valdespino, Jerez.
The back label reads: When the Estevez family became owners of the bodega Valdespino in 1999, Miguel Valdespino himself told them about some casks of very special old rum. The rum had been distilled in Cuba during the early part of the 1940s and then shipped to Spain soon after. It was then stored in oak casks previously used for maturing in Oloroso Sherry and has remained untouched ever since.
Please note, the wax capsule is damaged and cracked on top but appears to be secure. This has leaked in the past, but is not currently leaking. We recommend this for collection only and it is shipped at the buyer's risk.
