Bacoo 12 Year Dominican Aged Rum: The Pinnacle of Patience and Dominican Craftsmanship

Ascend to the highest echelon of aged rum with Bacoo 12 Year Dominican Aged Rum, the crown jewel of the Bacoo collection. This extraordinary expression embodies the ultimate fulfillment of the Bacoo legend, offering a spirit of unparalleled depth, complexity, and silken smoothness. Twelve years of patient maturation in the heart of the Dominican Republic have transformed this rum into a masterpiece, designed for the most discerning palates.

True to the brand's unwavering commitment to quality, Bacoo 12 Year adheres to a meticulous "farm-to-glass" philosophy. It is crafted exclusively from 100% fresh sugarcane juice (not molasses), harvested from the estate-grown plantations on the Dominican Republic. The juice undergoes natural fermentation and is distilled in unique copper stills at the acclaimed Alcoholes Finos Dominicanos (AFD) distillery. The spirit then embarks on an impressive and lengthy maturation journey, resting for a full 12 years in once-used American white oak ex-bourbon barrels. This prolonged aging period in the warm, tropical Caribbean climate allows for profound interaction between the rum and the wood, resulting in a deep, lustrous mahogany hue and an intricate layering of sophisticated flavors. Bottled at 40% ABV (80 Proof), Bacoo 12 Year is produced with no additives, ensuring an authentic, pure, and intensely refined Dominican rum experience that is a testament to time and masterful blending.

Key Characteristics:

  • Estate Grown & Produced: Full "farm-to-glass" control within the Dominican Republic, ensuring exceptional quality and consistency.
  • 100% Fresh Sugarcane Juice: Crafted exclusively from pure sugarcane juice, not molasses, for a distinctly fresh and aromatic profile.
  • Aged 12 Years: Matured for a full twelve years in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels, imparting profound depth, complexity, and unparalleled smoothness.
  • No Additives: A steadfast commitment to natural flavors and pure rum, free from added sugars, colorings, or flavorings.
  • Copper Still Distillation: Utilizes unique copper stills for meticulous distillation.
  • Ideal Proof (40% ABV / 80 Proof): Perfectly balanced for a refined sipping experience.
  • Deep Mahogany Color: A rich, inviting hue reflecting its extensive barrel aging.
  • Ultra-Smooth & Complex: Designed for connoisseurs seeking the pinnacle of aged rum.

Tasting Notes:

  • Appearance: Deep, radiant mahogany.
  • Nose: Intensely aromatic and inviting, with rich layers of dark caramel, toasted nuts (walnut, hazelnut), and crème brûlée. Notes of dried dark fruits (dates, figs), fine leather, dark chocolate, and a sophisticated woody spice emerge.
  • Palate: Luxuriously smooth and velvety, coating the mouth with an exquisite texture. Complex flavors of rich toffee, roasted coffee beans, and bitter chocolate are beautifully balanced by sweet vanilla and an elegant blend of baking spices (cinnamon, nutmeg). Hints of caramelized banana and a refined oak character add profound depth.
  • Finish: Exceptionally long, warm, and profoundly satisfying. Lingering notes of dark cocoa, roasted nuts, sweet pipe tobacco, and a lingering oak influence provide a truly memorable and contemplative conclusion.
