Identity

Eminente is a new Cuban rum from the heart of an island locals call ‘Isla del Cocodrilo’, whose unusual shape resembles that of its native crocodile.

Imagined by César Martí, the youngest Cuban Maestro Ronero (Rum Master), Eminente is a rich and full-bodied rum that draws its inspiration from 19th-century Cuban sugarcane eaux-de-vie, with all their complexity.

The blend of aged aguardientes and light rums creates Cuban rum as we know it. The aguardiente brings the complexity and depth of aromas, while the light rum adds vitality thanks to the strength of the alcohol.

By focusing on these refined aguardientes, Eminente sets new standards with Reserva made with 70% of aged aguardientes, the highest proportions among all Cuban Rums.

Icon

Ideal for sipping on its own, over a large ice cube or in cocktails, Eminente Reserva possesses the aesthetics of a traditional Cuban light rum but with the complexity and depth of a very old one. Eminente Reserva is at once intense and delicate on the nose. Full-bodied and incredibly deep, the palate is rich with vanilla and smoky notes, coffee and raspadura which is the taste of unrefined sugar cane.
