The high quality of rums in the Bacardi family reserve is represented in the utter perfection that is FACUNDO PARAISO XA Rum. A triumph in the art of rum making, FACUNDO PARAISO comprises the finest rums aged up to 23 years in the Bahamas. After aging, the rums are blended together and rested in French XO casks. This artistry results in an impeccably smooth, medium-bodied rum with a distinctive deep amber color - possibly the finest rum ever sipped. The rum is filled at 40% ABV in an elaborate 750ml bottle with intricate packaging, priced between 250 and 300 euros.
The Facundo Paraiso XA Rum offers an amazingly complex profile for its style. The nose is light and fruity with vanilla and caramel, accompanied by a hint of cognac. The palate is complex and dry, yet velvety, featuring fruit and spices. In the background, notes of chocolate, cookies, and oak are evident. The finish is medium-long with smoky oak, raisins, and a hint of marzipan. This rum offers a pleasant mouthfeel at its bottling strength, showing more depth than one might expect.
This rum is produced in the Bahamas and is part of a special series by Bacardi, dedicated to the founder Facundo Bacardi.
