Facundo Exquisito

Craftsmanship and Distillation

Facundo Exquisito is an artful blend of rums aged between 7 and 23 years in American oak barrels. The carefully selected aged rums are then finished in sherry casks to add depth and complexity. The entire distillation process is carried out in the Bahamas, using a combination of column still and traditional methods to ensure a refined, smooth profile. Each bottle is a testament to meticulous aging, blending, and finishing by Bacardi’s master blenders.

Aroma & Bouquet

On the nose, Facundo Exquisito is richly aromatic, offering layers of toasted oak, dried fruit, vanilla, and subtle hints of raisins and molasses. The influence of sherry cask finishing adds a delicate sweet nuttiness and warmth that sets it apart from traditional aged rums. It’s an aroma experience that beckons a slow, appreciative sip.

Smooth & Finish

Facundo Exquisito delivers a velvety, full-bodied texture on the palate. The initial sweetness of toffee and caramel evolves into notes of dark berries, roasted nuts, and spice. Its sherry-cask influence continues into the finish, leaving a lingering, silky trail of dark fruit and subtle oak. The finish is both elegant and enduring, embodying balance and complexity without any harsh edges.
