Ron Abuelo 12 Años is a Panamanian añejo rum aged for 12 years in hand-selected American white oak barrels, with a final maturation at a lower proof, bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).
Under Panama's tropical climate, distillates from estate-grown sugar cane are aged to perfection in selected small oak barrels. The final maturation at a lower proof deepens the flavor and character, creating an exquisitely rounded rum of exceptional character. It is well-rounded, intense and full of remarkable depth, an exceptional choice for sipping or pairing with fine desserts.
Pale amber in the glass, it brings dried fruits, cocoa and tobacco with caramel and toffee and a hint of oak, balancing complexity and smoothness.
The classic Abuelo bottle makes it a timeless gift.
