The Brugal Coleccion Visionaria Cacao Edicion 01 is a limited-edition rum that marks the first release in Brugal's Visionaria collection, which highlights local ingredients from the Dominican Republic. This exquisite bottling features the use of Dominican cacao beans, which are toasted in a virgin European oak cask before being filled with rum. This meticulous process imparts rich and complex aromas of cocoa powder, toasted almond, and caramel on the nose, followed by delightful notes of dark chocolate, citrus, and hazelnut on the palate.
With an ABV of 45%, this expression is crafted using 100% local molasses and undergoes a 36-hour fermentation process before distillation in a column still. The rum is then aged in a combination of American bourbon casks, Spanish Oloroso sherry casks, and unique casks that have been toasted with Dominican cacao. The result is a refined Dominican rum that boasts notes of sweet vanilla, caramel, dark chocolate, dried fruits, and toasted nuts.
Each bottle is carefully handcrafted, wrapped in a marine-blue net, and personally signed by Jassil Villanueva Quintana, making it a unique collector's item in the world of rum. This rum embodies Brugal's visionary spirit and 135 years of cask expertise, showcasing the island's most cherished treasure - cocoa beans. With every sip, you taste the culmination of years of expertise and the essence of Brugal's cherished homeland.
