The “Exquisito” in FACUNDO Exquisito Premium Blended Rum means “exquisite,” in Latin, a name based on this rum’s very delicate, exquisite nature. As a sublime, very rare, and balanced rum, FACUNDO Exquisito embodies the culture, music and fashion of Havana’s heyday, when nightlife ruled supreme and Cuba offered weary Americans a brief respite from Prohibition. Sublimely smooth and effortlessly drinkable, FACUNDO Exquisito Premium Blended Rum gains its suave, sociable character from a hand-picked, premier blend of rums, ranging in age from seven to 23 years old. Many of the medium-to-full-bodied rums used for this premium rum are filtered over activated charcoal before they are aged in oak barrels. Following the ageing process, FACUNDO Exquisito is finished in sherry casks, lending the rum an incomparably mellow profile. FACUNDO Exquisito has an aroma that is definitive, yet delicately balanced, with nuances of cinnamon, dates, dark berries and toasted oak. On the palate lies a rich and mellow character, with robust notes of raisins, apricots and baking spices, with a hint of butterscotch - on a warm, lingering finish.
