Review: The Rum Rats Arco Seco (The Perfect Barrel)
Posted by Arctic Wolf on April 11, 2022
Arco Seco is a Panamanian rum brought to you by Rum Rats. a partnership of Shamus Hewitt & Jason Gardner based in Ontario Canada. To bring this rum to Canada, Shamus and Jason have collaborated with renowned Panamanian Master Blender, Francisco “Don Pancho” Fernandez and Carlos Esquivel of the Pilsa Rum Distillery in Panama.
According to the Rum Rats website, this first rum release from Rum Rats brings a distinct, authentic Panamanian flavour to the Canadian market. It is a single origin spirit aged for 5 years in previously used Bourbon barrels. The rum is column-distilled from black molasses rum processed, fermented, distilled and aged all in the Arco Seco region of Panama. It is non-chill filtered and bottled at 43 % alcohol by volume with with no sugar or additives.

Thanks for the welcome back. Hopefully I will be able to pick up where I left off with regular reviews again. As for the Cask Strength, I do not have access to a sample bottle at this time, and I have I have quite a backlog I need to get too, but one never knows what’s in the future, so stay tuned …
