  • Bottle of Cubaney 12 Years Magnifico Gran Reserva rum
    Item no.: 22227865421-81

    Both American and French oak feature in this 12-year-old solera blend from one of the Dominican Republic's most respected houses.

    Expert description

    Cubaney 12 Years Magnifico Gran Reserva is a Rum from the Dominican Republic, matured on average 12 years using the solera method in American and French oak casks and bottled at 38%.

    The rum is produced by Oliver & Oliver, the same house behind Opthimus, and draws its complexity from a solera maturation combining two different oak types. This gives Magnifico Gran Reserva a depth and layer of spice that sets it apart from many other 12-year solera rums in the same price range.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Woody character with dried fruit and butterscotch, plus chocolate, cocoa, toffee and vanilla.

    Palate

    Full-bodied, with caramel, toffee and flambéed banana, supported by spice.

    Long, with fruity and spicy notes plus a hint of tobacco.

  • Cubaney 15 Year Grand Reserva Solera Oliver rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-19715

    Cuban heritage, Dominican production. Cubaney builds on the tradition from Cuba but is today a fully Dominican brand, where the solera system shapes every single bottle.

    Expert Description

    Cubaney 15 Year Grand Reserva Solera Oliver is a Dominican Republic Rum aged through a solera system and bottled at 38%.

    The Cubaney brand was created by Oliver & Oliver, a family-owned company of Cuban origin that moved its rum production to the Dominican Republic after the revolution. The rum ages through a classic solera system, where younger rum is continuously blended with older vintages across a combination of American ex-bourbon casks and French ex-wine casks, a method that produces a consistent, complex character year after year. Under the solera system, "15 years" refers to the oldest component in the blend rather than a fixed single vintage.

    The long ageing in the tropical climate has given the rum a rich, almost dessert-like sweetness, where the oak and dried fruit dominate.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Intense aroma of oak followed by vanilla, caramel and roasted nuts, supported by subtle tones of dried tropical fruit.

    Palate

    Balanced and complex, where caramel and cane sweetness intertwine with roasted almonds and a light spiced note.

    Finish

    Sweet close with a light, warm oak heat.

    Item no.: 22227865421-90

    A distillate from 1990, blended with younger rum to an average age over 15 years. It is rare to find a vintage this old on a bottle in this price range.

    Expert description

    Exquisito 1990 Oliver Ron de Santo Domingo is a Rum from the Dominican Republic, based on a molasses distillate from 1990 blended to an average age over 15 years, bottled at 40%.

    The rum is produced by Oliver & Oliver, who blend the old 1990 distillate with younger rum to achieve balance between depth and freshness. The mahogany colour and smoky, woody character reflect the long maturation, while the tropical fruit notes and fresh sugar cane tones remind us that several younger vintages are part of the blend.

    Aged wood, creamy oak and sweet spices, with tropical fruit, fresh sugar cane, dried plums and dark cocoa, plus smoke, charred wood and toasty character.

  • Opthimus 15 Year barricas de Malt Whisky Finish Dominican Republic Rum 43%
    Item no.: 22265421-15

    There is something stubborn about doing things the wrong way round. The world is full of whisky that has been allowed to rest in used rum casks. Here it is the rum that has taken the trip the other way and settled into a cask that once held Scotch malt whisky. The nose is Caribbean. The tail is a touch Highland.

    Expert description

    Opthimus 15 Year barricas de Malt Whisky Finish is a Dominican Rum from Oliver & Oliver, matured by the solera method in ex-bourbon casks and finished in Scotch Single Malt Whisky casks before bottling at 43%.

    Oliver & Oliver is based in Santo Domingo, but the family's story begins in Cuba, where Juanillo Oliver built his first rum production in the late 1800s. When the family resumed the work in the 1990s, it happened from the Dominican Republic. The house distils and blends rum from molasses on column stills and supplements with distillates from, among other places, Panama, Trinidad, Colombia and Nicaragua. That exact blend is the house's signature, and what precisely goes into any given bottle they keep close to the chest.

    Maturation happens by the solera principle, the same system the sherry houses of Andalusia use. The casks stand in tiers, and rum is always drawn from the lowest and oldest row, which is then topped up from the row above. The number 15 on the label refers to the oldest rum in the system, not every drop in the bottle. That gives a rum with both youthful fruit and the deep, concentrated tone that only time in cask can deliver.

    After the solera maturation in ex-bourbon casks, the rum moves onto casks that previously held Scotch Single Malt Whisky. This is where the bottle sets itself apart. The whisky cask lays a dryness over the Spanish-style sweetness, brings the spice forward and gives the finish an edge the Opthimus range is not otherwise known for. This bottling is from 2018 and made in a limited, numbered series of 3,000 bottles.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Vanilla and light honey first, then dried fruit and cask oak. Behind it lies cinnamon, sandalwood and a dry, almost malty tone that does not belong in a typical Dominican rum.

    Palate

    Full-bodied and soft with clear toffee and vanilla sweetness. Then the whisky cask enters from the side with pepper, roasted nuts and a dryness that keeps the sweetness in check. The oak is present throughout without becoming dominant.

    Finish

    Long and warm. The dryness from the malt cask lingers alongside pepper and a last trace of syrupy sweetness.

    Item no.: 22227865421-36

    Just six months in port wine casks, but that is enough to lift the entire character of this 15-year-old rum.

    Expert description

    Opthimus 15 Years Oporto is a Rum from the Dominican Republic, finished 6 months in port wine casks and bottled at 43%.

    The rum builds on Opthimus' classic 15-year-old solera blend, where rum from multiple vintages is gradually blended to achieve depth and consistency. By finishing it in port wine casks, an extra layer of aromatic depth is added, making it noticeably more opulent on the palate than the house's standard 15-year-old edition.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Soft and sweet, with molasses, vanilla and roasted nuts, plus a light, smoky woodiness gradually softened by coconut and almond.

    Palate

    Soft with caramel, chocolate, sweet spices and vanilla, with a hint of prune and touches of blackcurrant or blueberry.

    Finish

    Rich and satisfying, with lingering sweetness.

  • Opthimus 18 Year Dominican Republic Rum 38%
    Item no.: 22227865421-11

    Outside Santo Domingo the warehouses stand close together, and the air inside is heavy and warm all year round.

    Here time works faster than in a Scottish cellar. The casks give up their contents at a pace no northern European warehouse can match, and evaporation takes its toll every single year.

    Opthimus is the Oliver family's answer to what that heat can be used for, if you have the patience to wait anyway.

    Expert description

    Opthimus 18 Year Cum Laude 2019 is a Dominican Rum from Oliver & Oliver, matured in ex-Bourbon casks of American white oak and bottled at 38%.

    Oliver & Oliver is a family business with Cuban roots. The family left Cuba in 1959, and only in the early 1990s was the business rebuilt in the Dominican Republic, where it is now based in Hato Nuevo outside Santo Domingo. The house does not distil itself, but blends and matures molasses-based distillates under the direction of maestro ronero Don Pedro Oliver.

    Maturation follows the Sistema Solera, the Spanish pyramid system originally developed for sherry. Rum of different ages is continually blended in a system of casks, so that a portion of the oldest rum always carries forward. The number 18 on the label refers to the oldest rum in the blend, not the whole content. That is worth knowing if you come from the world of whisky, where the age statement means exactly the opposite.

    Cum Laude is Oliver & Oliver's designation for the bottlings the house itself considers top marks, and it is only used for select vintages. This one was bottled in 2019 in a run of 1,000 bottles. Each bottle is filled, labelled and numbered by hand, and the label is signed by the maestro ronero. The casks are former Bourbon casks from Kentucky of American white oak, and they are what deliver the vanilla, coconut and soft timber running through the whole flavour. The 38% is a deliberate choice by the house: the rum is built for softness rather than power.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Warm vanilla and light honey first. Behind that comes toffee, dried fig and a mild cocoa note, and right at the end a touch of pipe tobacco and dry oak.

    Palate

    Soft and round. Honey and caramel carry the start, then dark chocolate and roasted coffee unfold, and there is a lightly peppery edge and a touch of ginger in the background that keeps the sweetness in check.

    Finish

    Long and spiced-sweet. The vanilla lingers longest, along with sweet oak and a dry tobacco note right at the very end.

    Item no.: 22227865421-892

    The cane fields at the eastern end of the Dominican Republic run all the way to the coast, where the air stays salty and damp the year round. Casks work hard in that heat, and they work fast. Esplendido means splendid, and the producer put the word on the label without flinching.

    Please note: There is no gift box with this bottle.

    The expert's description

    Puntacana Esplendido Dominican Republic Rum 70 cl 38% is a Dominican Rum aged 12 to 20 years in American oak casks, finished in used Burgundy wine casks and bottled at 38%.

    The blend brings together young and older distillates married with a 25 year old mother rum. The oldest part supplies the depth, the younger parts the lift, and the result is a very dark rum in the soft Spanish style. The colour is close to mahogany and the texture is thick enough to cling to the side of the glass.

    The last six months are spent in used Burgundy wine casks. That is an unusual choice for a Dominican rum, where a finish more often happens in sherry or port wood. The Burgundy casks lay dried red fruit and a light tannin under the sweetness and pull the rum away from straight caramel.

    Puntacana Club comes from Oliver & Oliver, a family firm of Cuban origin now based in the Dominican Republic. Maturation happens in a tropical climate, where evaporation runs far higher than in a cool cellar in the north and a cask covers more ground in fewer years. The 12 to 20 years on the label therefore add up to more maturation than the numbers suggest.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Sweet baking straight away, warm and fresh from the oven, with thick toffee behind it. A trace of dark fruit and vanilla pod rounds the aroma off.

    Palate

    Brown sugar and fat bourbon vanilla lead, carried by American oak that adds a little dry structure. Dried fruit from the wine casks arrives midway, and the sweetness stays the course without turning sticky.

    Finish

    Roasted carob, cinnamon and caramelised fruit. Long and warm, and the oak is the last thing standing.

About Oliver & Oliver

Oliver & Oliver is a family-owned rum house based in Santo Domingo that specializes in seeking out, buying, and maturing outstanding rum from several Caribbean countries of origin rather than distilling itself. That makes the house something of a curator rather than a traditional distillery, and this role has given Oliver & Oliver a sharp eye for quality; they know the distillates, casks, and warehouses better than most, resulting in rum that's approachable for beginners yet serious enough for collectors.

History & Background

The Oliver family has roots in the Dominican rum trade going back generations, gradually building a network of suppliers across the region. Rather than building its own distillery, the house has cultivated relationships with existing producers, giving access to a broader range of styles than any single distillery could offer.

Production & Style

The rum is distilled in its respective countries of origin and then shipped to the Dominican Republic, where Oliver & Oliver composes the final blends. Many expressions are aged using the solera method, where younger rum is continually blended with older vintages across a series of linked casks, so the finished product always carries a trace of the very oldest drops.

Signature Style

Full-Bodied, Spiced, Round
The flavor offers a full-bodied, spiced character with notes of dried fruit and brown sugar, finishing soft and round.

Did You Know?

The solera system used for several Oliver & Oliver expressions originally comes from sherry production in Andalusia, meaning no bottle is ever fully emptied of the oldest vintages.
