FLOR DE CAÑA 12-Year-Old Rum

Discover FLOR DE CAÑA 12-Year-Old Rum, a Nicaraguan rum that combines wood maturation with an aromatic profile of fruit, vanilla and delicate spicy nuances.

Ageing in ex-bourbon barrels helps develop a balanced flavour, in which woody notes complement those of baked apple and honey. A rum to explore slowly, paying attention to its aromas and how they evolve in the glass.

Nicaraguan origin

Flor de Caña comes from Nicaragua, a country deeply connected to the brand’s history and rum production.

Maturation takes place at the foot of an active volcano: a setting that shapes the distillery’s identity and accompanies a family tradition that began in 1890.

Aged for 12 years

The rum is aged for 12 years in barrels previously used for bourbon, gradually developing its character.

Contact with the wood enriches the aromatic profile, creating an interplay of fruity, vanilla and spicy notes. The result is a rum with a distinctive personality, suitable for both sipping and mixing.

Amber colour with reddish highlights

In the glass, it displays an amber colour with reddish highlights, inviting you to appreciate the spirit’s appearance before tasting.

To observe it at its best, we recommend pouring a small amount into a clear glass, leaving room for the aromas to develop.

Aromas of fruit, honey and toasted nuts

On the nose, red berries, honey and toasted nuts can be recognised.

A combination of aromas that invites slow tasting: gently bring the glass towards your nose and give the rum a few moments to reveal its different nuances.

Notes of vanilla and baked apple

On the palate, wood, vanilla and baked apple emerge, accompanied by hints of honey and delicate spicy notes.

The finish is smooth and balanced, ideal for those seeking a rum whose different aromatic sensations complement one another without any single note dominating.

How to enjoy it

To explore its profile, we recommend first trying it neat, in small sips.

It can also be served:

• with a large ice cube, for a cooler tasting experience;

• with a splash of sparkling water and orange peel, for a simple, aromatic serve;

• in rum-based cocktails, to add depth and nuances of wood and vanilla.
