Embodying the renaissance of Cuban rum, Eminente brings up to date the island's ancestral tradition, now reinterpreted by the country's youngest master rum maker, Cesar Marti.
These are rums composed of over 70% cane brandy, the highest proportion of all Cuban rums, inspired by 19th-century know-how, and aged for 7 and 10 years respectively. These structured rums, rich in aroma, perfectly combine delicacy and depth, power and vitality.
