Ron Ingenio Manacas Extra Añejo
In 1948, Sanchez Romate sent their most able foreman, Juan Jiménez Villalba, to Cuba to oversee the company's wines and spirits being sold there. Once there Villalba observed that the used casks were well suited to the ageing of rum, made by the local Cuban distillers. Following the Cuban Revolution, Villalba succeded in recuperating some of these rum-filled casks and shipped them back to Jerez. Here he carefully tended the rum and created a small solera within the Sanchez Romate winery.
