Malteco Triple 1
"Good over proof for 55.5%," as one member puts it — and that's the surprise here. This Panamanian pours soft and mild despite the strength, with vanilla, caramel, apricot and a raisin-cake sweetness that fans of the rum-raisin style will recognize. The alcohol sits well-integrated, so it drinks easier than the proof suggests. Likely sweetened, but it wears it well.
The community says- Mild for the proof
- Rum-raisin sweetness
- Likely added sugar

How does Malteco Triple 1 taste?
Aggregated from 16 community reviews.
Soft, sweet Panama sipper that hides its 55.5% Most tasters land on the same verdict: a dangerously mild, sweet Panama sipper with well-buried heat. A few note the sugar, but almost nobody holds it against the bottle.

Good over proof for 55,5 % is it rly nice to drink.
Review by FaoRouge
Überraschend runder Geschmack, gefährlich mild für 55,5%. A lot of bang and taste for the buck! ;)
Review by Godspeed
I received this as a small sample and I must say it's not too bad. For fans of rum raisin, it's very pleasant. Of course, there's probably some added sugar in there, but still, well-integrated alcohol. In my opinion, a pretty good easy sipper. There are a lot of Spanish ones on the market, but they're not as good as this one.
Review by w00tAN
Der Geruch ist eher trist sobald er im Mund ist entfaltet sich eine Komplexität, die gut im Alkohol eingebettet ist.
