Santos Dumont
In honor of a Brazilian plantation and aviation pioneer. The taste of something out of the ordinary.
It all began in 1897 when Brazilian Alberto Santos Dumont (born 1873) was a world-famous aviation pioneer, nobleman and style icon. He was the heir of a rich plantation dynasty. Rum and cachaça were distilled from sugar cane grown on the family plantation. Today, Santos Dumont is made from fresh Brazilian sugar cane juice mixed with molasses-based rum from the West Indies and Central America. Santos Dumont, like few others, chooses to compose the two types of rum in a way that can only be described as Santos Dumont. With his achievements as inspiration, we have pushed the limits of excellent craftsmanship in every Santos Dumont creation and combined the spirit of Santos Dumont in every bottle and drop.
Santos Dumont Palmira
XO Palmira - a tribute to Albert Santos Dumont (1873-1932) Palmira is a rum-based spirit made from the finest sugar cane juice. It would like to be called a "rhum traditionnel", but we think it could open up a category of its own. It is aged in former sweet wine barrels. This gives it its elegant tannins.
Nose: aromas of fresh apricots, toasted marshmallows and sweet tobacco, with a hint of honey and ripe fruit.
Palate: Ripe sweet oak, soft and smooth, with a supple complexity, tropical fruit, sultanas along with noble rot from the maturation of sweet wine vines.
Finish: Long, soft and creamy.
Santos Dumont Gewürztraminer
Santos Dumont XO Gewürztraminer is a fascinating liqueur with a full-bodied sweetness. It is suitable for anyone who appreciates a high-quality spirit that combines exactly balanced spicy complexity with long-lasting velvety sweetness. This well-aged blend is stored in old and carefully selected barrels, which were previously used to mature the spicy and graceful white wine grapes. Herbal expressions combined with tropical notes make it a wonderfully extravagant experience - a unique combination of notes of this elegant wine and first-class aged rums. Santos Dumont XO Gewürztraminer is produced in small batches and each bottle is individually numbered. Enjoy Santos Dumont XO Gewürztraminer as an aperitif with lots of ice cream or as a treat after a meal.
Nose: Tropical fruits, wine gum, milk chocolate and a slight touch of lovage.

Santos Dumont XO
The perfect balance between the traditional slow-fermented molasses distillates from the West Indies and Central America and the traditional sugar cane distillate from Brazil.
