Differemce betweem Palo Viejo & Ron Llave?

[mbanu]

Palo Viejo and Ron Llave appear to both be made at the same distillery. They're also both white rums. So, where's the difference come from?

Without having a bottle of each of these popular Puerto Rican rums in front of me, I will tell you that there is little difference between them. A number of Puerto Rican rum brands have been bought by the last two remaining distilleries and a number of white rums are bottled under different labels.

You may find slight differences but they are both molasses based rums from the same distillery and both are supposed to be aged at least one year before they are bottled. The difference you may find is that one of these rums will have a slightly more floral or citrus nose than the other, but it will hard to discern.
