Description

The Shakara 12 Year Old Thai Rum is a refined and expressive rum that artfully blends tropical aging influence with fine structure. Deeply flavorful yet elegant, it offers a compelling alternative to many Caribbean or Latin American aged rums—rich in character and beautifully balanced. Origins & Craftsmanship Produced in the province of Nakhon Pathom in Thailand, this rum is distilled from molasses on a column still and matured for a full 12 years in ex-bourbon casks. The tropical climate—high humidity and consistently warm temperatures—accelerates maturation in a distinctive way, creating complex character despite its relative age. Bottled at 45.7% ABV (91.4 Proof) and free of additives or colouring, it honours the legacy of sugarcane cultivation in Southeast Asia. Tasting Profile Nose: Aromas of brown sugar, toasted coconut, toasted macadamia nuts and vanilla bean, layered with hints of lemongrass, dark chocolate and espresso roast.Palate: Smooth and full-flavoured—rich toffee and butterscotch meet mango and papaya, followed by almond butter, sesame oil and cinnamon spice. A clean oak depth supports the tropical fruit.Finish: Medium to long, warm and subtly exotic—lichi and peach pit linger alongside vanilla, gentle pepper spice and a refined oily texture that echoes its tropical rum heritage.
