Abuelo 12 Year Old Two Oaks is a molasses rum aged for 12 years using a double maturation process in two distinct types of casks.
The first aging takes place in ex-bourbon American oak barrels, identical to those used for the classic Abuelo 12. The second aging occurs in new American white oak barrels, specially crafted by the cooper for the Abuelo house.
These casks are first grooved to increase the contact surface between the wood and the rum, then heated to reveal their aromas, especially vanilla: a first heating at 180°C for one hour, followed by a second at 220°C.
