The Rum Factory Double Cask Collection Cognac Cask 12yo 45% 700ml is an exceptional rum originating from the Dominican Republic, brought to life by the esteemed Rum Factory. This unique rum is crafted using premium-quality molasses and follows an intricate aging process that elevates its character and depth. Initially aged in the tropical climate of its birthplace, the rum matures through the Solera method—a technique derived from Spanish wine brandy production. This method involves a gradual blending of aged and new spirits in stacked casks. The Rum Factory Double Cask Collection Cognac Cask 12yo spends its first maturation phase in former Sherry casks, with components aged up to twelve years. Subsequently, the rum is transported to Europe, where it undergoes a finishing process in French Cognac casks at the Albert Michler Distillery in the Czech Republic, lasting between eight to twelve months. This meticulous aging process, which involves various cask types and climate conditions, results in a rum with a complex and captivating flavor profile. On the nose, it offers hints of cognac, oak, and young wood, complemented by spicy and aromatic nuances. The palate is greeted with a distinguished taste of cognac, oak, barrel notes, vanilla, fruity elements, and Demerara sugar. The finish leaves a lingering impression of fruity sweetness and Demerara sugar, making it a robust, smooth, and potent rum with a charming finish. The attention to detail and experimentation by The Rum Factory are evident in this Double Cask Collection Cognac Cask 12yo 45% 700ml. It is recommended to savor it neat to fully appreciate its remarkable character, which is a testament to the benefits of meticulous craftsmanship and the value of time and space for the spirit's development.
