Ron Malteco SELECCIÓN 1987 40% vol. 0.7 l is an exceptional vintage rum bottling, one of the most exclusive editions from the Malteco brand. This premium rum was distilled in 1987 at Bodegas de America S.A. in Panama using the traditional column still method from freshly pressed sugar cane juice. As a strictly limited vintage edition, the Selección 1987 embodies the fine art of Central American rum production and is aimed at discerning connoisseurs and collectors of exceptional bottlings. The elegant 0.7-litre bottle is presented in a high-quality wooden box, emphasising the exclusive character of this rare gem.


Following distillation, the Ron Malteco Selección 1987 was aged for a full 28 years in ex-bourbon casks made from American white oak before being bottled in 2015. Panama’s tropical climate accelerates the ageing process and ensures an intense interaction between the distillate and the wood, resulting in an exceptionally complex flavour profile. Despite its elegant 40% ABV, this premium rum impresses with remarkable depth, a smooth texture and harmonious balance. Its high quality was further confirmed by the gold medal it won at the 2016 International Spirits Competition, making it a highly sought-after collector’s bottling.
