Sans Wine and Spirits was founded in 1985 by Lou Sans. After working for his father Nick in the Spirits business for years, he recognized a need for Latin-inspired Spirits in Southern California. Based in Irvine, California, the company has grown, developing a range of Tequilas, Sangrias, Vodkas, and Rums — including Los Jarochos, a neutral Spirit from Veracruz made from cane juice. Bacoo Rums are made farm-to-bottle in the central Dominican Republic where the weather and the volcanic soil are perfect for growing sugarcane.
Bacoo 12 Year Old Rum is the kind of bottle you’ll want to save for sipping neat. This bronze-colored Rum is velvety, bright, and fruity with a complex flavor profile. It starts with aromas and flavors of toasted fig bread, chocolate, pistachio, and toffee. The finish brings spumoni gelato, pink peppercorn, and some bitter yet honeyed espazote. Intriguing and lightly herbal, this is not a sipper you’ll easily forget.
Smartass Corner:
The "Bacoo" are mythological minor spirits (ghosts) referred to in the cultures of Guyana and the Caribbean. Sort of mischievous poltergeists that toss stones and move things at night. They are said to become trapped in corked bottles. The word likely comes from the West African word "Baku," meaning "little brother."
