Kirk and Sweeney 12 Year Old
Kirk and Sweeney is a 12-year-old Dominican rum named after a wooden schooner (a type of fast sailing vessel) that was a leader in smuggling rum from the Caribbean to the USA during Prohibition and later served for Coast Guard training.
Rum Kirk and Sweeney is made from the finest, hand-harvested fresh sugarcane in small batches and ages in oak barrels that previously held French wine for at least 12 years. You will quickly fall in love with its rich mahogany color, exceptional smoothness, and a balanced, full flavor that is sometimes even nectar-like.
Aroma: sweet honey perfectly balanced with herbal undertones of sugarcane, hints of vanilla, a whiff of oak, and dried fruit
Taste: warmly sweet with notes of vanilla
Finish: smooth, long, and delicate
