Bacoo 7 Year Old Rum

Bacoo 7 Year Old is a seamless, versatile rum with enough barrel character for sipping and the balance to work in mixed drinks. Bacoo is produced in the Dominican Republic from fresh cane juice pressed from estate-grown sugar cane rather than molasses, distilled in both copper and stainless steel stills, and aged in ex-bourbon barrels; the brand describes this as a farm-to-glass process that gives it more control over quality and character. This expression is aged 7 years and bottled at 40% ABV in a 700ml bottle.

Tasting Notes: Dark amber, with vanilla, banana, maple, molasses and creamy coffee flavours.

Nose: Vanilla.

Palate: Buttercream icing, banana, maple and molasses, with warm vanilla, banana cream and creamy coffee.

Finish: Very little heat, with a slight bitterness.
