"Seleccion del Siglo", selection of the century, is the ambitious subtitle for Espero Ultimo, the Albert Michler family's take on a sweet, approachable rum that still has enough depth to justify the name.
Expert Description
A. Michler Ron Espero Ultimo is a Dominican Republic Rum, a blend assembled by Albert Michler Distillery and bottled at 42%.
The rum is released under the Ron Espero brand, created by Albert Michler Distillery, a respected England-based bottler founded by the German-Austrian Michler family in 1863. Espero Ultimo, subtitled "Seleccion del Siglo", is the blend's most ambitious edition, assembled from selected Dominican rum to deliver a sweet, round and easy-drinking experience with good depth.
