Vizcaya Cuban Formula Rum Cask 12 is a characterful rum with an alcohol content of 40 per cent, available in a 0.7-litre bottle, which draws on traditional Cuban rum-making methods. Vizcaya is synonymous with an elegant style of rum, where cask maturation and a balanced interplay of fruit, wood and spice take centre stage. The designation ‘Cask 12’ identifies this specific bottling within the Vizcaya portfolio and should not be confused with a statement of age of twelve years. The rum combines an approachable base character with a distinctly perceptible oak influence, making it suitable both for lovers of classic rum styles and as an introduction to the Vizcaya range.


The Vizcaya Cask 12 Cuban Formula Rum is characterised in particular by its combination of fruity, nutty and spicy notes. Fresh apple provides the opening notes, whilst the cask influence comes more to the fore as the flavour develops. Toasted oak, almonds and raisins are complemented by brown sugar and classic spicy and citrus notes. At 40% ABV, this bottling has a classic drinking strength, making it ideal both for enjoying neat and for crafting premium rum cocktails. The Vizcaya Cask 12 is therefore an interesting choice for anyone seeking a multi-layered rum in the Cuban Formula style with a pronounced oak character.
