The Botucal 2000 SV Sherry Cask Finish 43% 700ml is a Venezuelan gem crafted at the renowned Destilerias Unidas S. A. distillery. Distilled from molasses using a Pot Still in the year 2000, this exceptional rum was aged for 13 years before reaching a refined 43% ABV. This sophisticated spirit presents a harmonious bouquet of aromas including caramel, sweet burnt sugar, raisin, and dried fruit. On the palate, it delivers an intricate symphony of flavors such as raisin, toffee, licorice, spice, and burnt sugar. The Botucal 2000 SV Sherry Cask Finish has been lauded by rum connoisseurs for its complex and multifaceted taste profile, making it a highly esteemed addition to any sophisticated rum collection. Sweetish fruit, light wood notes, and a pleasing complexity ensure this vintage rum stands out, even when compared to its acclaimed predecessors.
This rum is unique due to its single vintage origin, being distilled in 2000, and its complex aging process which includes finishing in sherry casks.
While all Botucal vintages are exceptional, the 2000 version is often praised for its sweetish fruit and light wood notes. Some enthusiasts believe it is only slightly outshined by the 1997 vintage.
