Old Monk 12 Year Old Rum

Old Monk 12 Year Old is a well aged and rich Indian rum that has earned cult status among rum enthusiasts worldwide. First introduced in 1954, it has built its reputation through word of mouth alone, becoming one of the bestselling dark rums globally.

Distilled from molasses and matured for a minimum of 12 years, this expression delivers both depth and richness. On the nose and palate, it reveals a complex mix of warming spice and sweetness, with notes of cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, and tobacco layered alongside almond, hazelnut, and hints of stewed black tea. Touches of vanilla, chocolate, dark brown sugar, and oak add further depth and balance.

Bottled at 42.8% ABV, it has a smooth, medium body with a warming, toasty character that lingers on the finish. Equally enjoyable sipped neat or used to elevate classic rum serves, this is a bold and distinctive example of traditional Indian rum craftsmanship.
