Facundo Paraiso Rum (75cl, 40%)

Facundo Paraiso Rum is the oldest and rarest blend in the FACUNDO Rum Collection, named for Bacardi founder Don Facundo Bacardí Massó. It is a blend of rums aged up to 23 years in white oak barrels, finished in French XO cognac casks. The rums are hand-selected from the Bacardi family's private reserves and matured for up to 23 years in white oak before being brought together and rested in French XO casks. It is intended as a sipping rum, served neat. Deep amber in the glass, with vanilla, caramel and toasted oak over dried fruits, milk and dark chocolate, hazelnut, marzipan, warm nutmeg, cinnamon and clove, plus a subtle leather-and-tobacco edge and a delicate floral lift. The finish is long and elegant, lingering on smoky oak, marzipan and gentle sweetness.
