The Rum Diaries XXI

Ooooh, baby. Number twenty one was a big time winner. We had eyed this bottle of Botero Reserva Especial off a few times but finally bit the bullet in Medellin last week and forked out a rather hefty (by local standards) $40 for a taste.
Brought out in honour of Fernando Botero, Colombia's most renowned artist and sculptor, the bottle is reminiscent of one of his roly-poly statues that adorn the centre of Medellin.


 

The rum was the best one we’ve had in Colombia and would definitely be up there in the top five for the Rum Diaries so far. It was so good, I let Martijn drink almost all of it, since my tastebuds are not so finely attuned to rum as his.
