Rum

Discover Our Selection of Exceptional Rums

Warmth, depth, and exotic richness — rum is a spirit with many faces, deeply rooted in tropical heritage and centuries-old tradition. At 12Bouteilles, we proudly offer a curated collection of premium rums in all their diversity: white, amber, aged, and extra-aged. Our catalog features renowned distilleries from the French West Indies, Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Indian Ocean, all selected for their authenticity, distillation quality, and aromatic complexity.

Whether you prefer a fresh, vegetal white rum for mixing, or a complex, oaky aged rum for contemplative sipping, our range includes something for every taste and occasion. Perfect as an aperitif, digestif, or the soul of classic cocktails, rum is as versatile as it is expressive — a must-have in any serious spirits collection.

Rum: Between Terroir, Technique, and Time

Rum is made from sugarcane, either directly from fresh juice (as in agricole rum) or from molasses (traditional rum). While its base ingredient may seem simple, the diversity of production methods, climate, barrel types, and aging durations make rum one of the richest and most nuanced categories in the world of spirits.

French-style agricole rums, distilled from pure cane juice, tend to be dry, grassy, and aromatic — perfect for connoisseurs seeking freshness and structure. Rums from English- and Spanish-speaking Caribbean countries are typically smoother and rounder, with notes of caramel, vanilla, exotic fruits, and spice, especially after time spent aging in oak casks.

The most common styles include:

• White rum – unaged or lightly rested, fresh and clean, ideal for cocktails or a classic Ti’ Punch.
• Amber rum – aged for several months, mellow and slightly woody, perfect for casual sipping or refined mixology.
• Aged rum – aged for three years or more, offering complex notes of vanilla, oak, dried fruit, cacao, and spice; best enjoyed neat.

How to Enjoy Rum Properly

Rum adapts to every moment. White rums are best served in refreshing cocktails like Mojitos, Daiquiris, or Ti’ Punch. Amber rums can be enjoyed neat, over ice, or in complex blends like the Mai Tai. Aged rums deserve a tulip glass and a moment of calm — sip them at room temperature to appreciate their full aromatic evolution.

Gourmet pairings? Rum pairs beautifully with dark chocolate, roasted nuts, dried fruit, tropical desserts, or even a fine cigar. The experience is warm, layered, and endlessly enjoyable — especially with the right bottle.
