Classic Dominican, Spanish-Style
Lemba Superior is built the traditional Dominican way described in the manufacturer's notes: signature molasses, a Spanish-style recipe, and a year of ageing before bottling. It is the straight, unflavoured expression in the Lemba range — the spiced sibling sits below it on this page, and the two never share specs.
