Independent reviewer That Rum Drinker examines Panama Edition as a blend of aged Panamanian rums and The Curatist’s English-distilled spirit, finished in Cognac casks. The review praises the ceramic bottle and distinctive presentation, while describing an unconventional flavour profile of strawberry, vanilla, almond, candied ginger and grassy freshness. The reviewer found it more compelling in a Daiquiri than as a neat sipper and scored it 5/10, with price identified as the main concern.
