Piquero is a popular rum spirit with an impressive flavour profile. Its delicate but rich flavour reveals notes of chocolate, nuts, biscuits or cookies. This bottle is not to be missed on the shelf of any lover of sweet rums!
The Piquero brand is linked to an interesting story based on Panamanian folklore. In fact, a Panamanian legend considers the blue-footed booby, the bird that appears on the Piquero label, to be the patron saint of good rum. By the way, it is this species of bird that the locals call by the name of Piquero.
An interesting story has been preserved in folklore, which says that while walking along one of the Panamanian coasts, a nest of Piquero birds was discovered with unusual contents. It did not contain eggs, but a dusty bottle of very old rum. The young man who found the nest stooped down to pick up the bottle and decided to take it with him.
Upon arriving home, the villagers decided to taste the rum and once they did, they were all left speechless. It was the best rum they had ever tasted! They associated this experience with the nest where the bottle was found and from that moment on, they began to regard the Piquero birds as the patrons of good rum.
