Cockspur Fine Rum, 70cl

Product Information

The finish of Cockspur Fine Rum is a little hot and dry with the citrus notes combining with black pepper for a medium long but very dry and slightly acidic finish. This is an important distinction in the rum world, where 12 may not always mean 12 years (it could just as easily mean 12 different blends of rum, or the 12th expression of rum, or just that they like the number 12). This beautiful, dark-golden rum is characterized by its sweet, silky, smooth flavor that leaves a wonderful oak taste on the palate. This revolutionary process produced a flavourful, dry, crisp, and “clean” COCKSPUR Rum that many have come to know and love.

Beyond ice, Cockspur Fine Rum is really best suited for mixing; while it does okay with some of the classic citrus-forward rum drinks, its acidic quality can make it difficult to balance out. We then add the freshest lime juice to create our deliciously sweet, slightly spicy Falernum that has been an island favourite for generations. Cockspur 130 manages to deliver many of the elements you want in an overproof rum without getting too fiery or out of hand. As with Cockspur’s Fine Rum, the Cockspur 12 should really appeal to whiskey drinkers, especially those who really enjoy tasting their barrel (like with Devil’s Cut).

It’s unfortunate, but when dealing with rum, there is no standards board or AOC that governs what gets put in the bottle, so you always have to trust your palate to ensure what you paid for is what you got. The midpalate maintains many of the same flavors from the entry but it brings on a much stronger pepper spice along with some heat. Cockspur Fine Rum really isn’t a spirit that does well sipped neat – its dry and slightly acidic finish scream for some dilution, and with ice, the finish rounds out and becomes more affable.

The entry is fairly light and slightly thin with vanilla, butterscotch, pineapple, and honeysuckle combining with black pepper, clove, and cinnamon. We expected fire from the entry of Cockspur 130, but instead we got sweet with vanilla, marshmallow, and banana.
