Farm to Glass, Finished in Tequila Barrels
Bacoo grows its own cane and presses it fresh — a cane-juice rum, not a molasses rum — then ages it in ex-bourbon oak before the Wish Series twist: a final 14 months in tequila barrels that layer subtle agave character over the rum's natural cane sweetness. Nothing is added back — no sugar, no additives — so what you taste is the cane and the double-barrel ageing. Browse the Bacoo collection and the full rum shelves.
Tasting Notes
Golden amber with cinnamon and leather, ladyfingers and fudge; a satiny, dry palate of sticky toffee pudding, flambéed pineapple and banana, raisin bran and cinnamon churro, warming through a medium-length finish.
How to Enjoy
A sipper — neat or over one large cube, where the tequila-cask agave edge can show itself against the toffee depth.
