Prohibido - Solera 12, 15 & 22 + Ron Prohibido backpack - 70 cl - 3 flaschen

El Ron Prohibido (Der Verbotene Rum) ist eine Premium-Rum-Marke, die in Mexiko produziert wird, bekannt für ihr bittersüßes Geschmacksprofil und die ikonische Flasche mit einem kleinen Henkel am Flaschenhals. Der Name stammt von einem Gesetz aus dem 18. Jahrhundert, als König Philipp V. von Spanien den Geist im Neuen Weltgebiet verbot, um europäische Alkoholproduzenten zu schützen.
History and Origin of the NameIn the 18th century, Spanish ships traveled to the Americas loaded with sweet wine. To avoid returning empty, local producers filled the barrels with Mexican rum, known at the time as Chinguirito.During the long voyage back, the rum absorbed the aromas of the sweet wine soaked into the wood, transforming into a high-quality spirit. Its success in Spain was so overwhelming that domestic producers pressured the crown, resulting in an official ban on the drink. Since Havana (Cuba) was the final fleet stop before crossing the Atlantic, this rum also became historically known as Ron Habanero. Main Expressions and CharacteristicsThe modern rum is produced from sugarcane molasses at the Casa Corralejo distillery in Pénjamo (Guanajuato).
