Royal Reserve
Guava wine
Guava fermented with honey. Tropical fruit from San Juan, Veraguas.
355 ml · 12% abv
Spontaneous fermentation, and with wine yeast. It is not only the yeast already on the fruit: wine yeast goes in with it. That is a different call from La Gobernadora, which in this same series is not inoculated.
The honey is bee honey.
Origin. San Juan, province of Veraguas. The same village as the cane mill, but not the same house and not the same people: the guava comes off a tree picked there each season.
355 ml, 12% abv.
Tasting note
Like a pétillant rosé, lightly sparkling, bright pink in the glass. Demi-sec in body, structured, with barrel notes underneath and a lingering finish.
