Bore Rum Joven
Bore Rum Joven is the young expression of Boré's Mexican artisanal rum line — bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) in 750mL, an amber rum that keeps its cane character close to the surface. "Joven" means young, and the profile follows: light, harmonic, very lightly sweet with a pleasant bitterness that, in the importer's words, "remembers its cane origin." Like its siblings, it carries no age statement on the label — and this copy invents none. It's available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

Young, Amber, and Cane-Forward
Where the Reserva leans opulent and the Maduro leans soft, the Joven is the bright one — crystalline amber in the glass, cane notes front and center, that pleasant bitter edge keeping the light sweetness honest. It's the Boré for mixing: a rum that still tastes like the cane it came from. Explore more rum or the Boré range at Del Mesa.
