Mezan's 2012 Dominican Republic rum is a refined 10-year-old expression, artfully distilled at the Alcoholes Finos Dominicanos (AFD) distillery and matured in ex-bourbon casks. This exquisite rum underwent an initial aging period of three years in the tropical climate of the Dominican Republic followed by an additional seven years in the more temperate climate of Europe. Crafted from molasses sourced from the provinces of San Pedro de Macoris, La Romana, La Altagracia, and El Seibo, this rum delivers an enticing aroma of vanilla, cinnamon, muscovado sugar, coconut, orange blossom, and pepper. On the palate, you'll experience a delightful blend of soft oak and exotic spices.
The sugarcane molasses used in this rum was fermented using proprietary yeasts and distilled in a 5-column repasse still in 2012. This meticulous process results in a spirit that truly encapsulates the essence of its origins. Mezan Dominican Republic 2012 was aged for a total of 10 years in American ex-bourbon oak barrels, with the first three years spent in the Caribbean heat and the remaining seven in a European climate. The expression is bottled without cold filtration, artificial coloring, or added sugar, ensuring a pure and unaltered experience with each sip. This limited release comprises only 5,500 numbered bottles.
Mezan’s dedication to quality is evident in every detail, from using freshly crushed Dominican sugarcane to fermenting with proprietary yeasts and distilling in their 5-column continuous still. To truly appreciate the unique flavors of this rum, it is recommended to enjoy Mezan rums neat and unaltered.

Overall Taste: Mezan 2012 Dominican Republic 10yo 46% 700ml offers a complex and spicy profile with notes of cinnamon, ginger, coconut, vanilla, and dark chocolate, culminating in a warm, woody finish.
The nose promises a sweet rum with notes of caramel, vanilla, almond paste, and a hint of dark chocolate. After some time, orange notes develop, presenting a well-rounded and indulgent aroma. On the palate, the initial attack is on dark chocolate with a sharp edge, possibly due to the alcohol not being fully integrated. The sweet indulgence suggested by the nose does not fully carry through to the taste, with the finish being somewhat alcoholic despite the relatively low ABV.
