Product info about Centenario 12y Gran Legado

Centenario 12y Gran Legado is a Costa Rican rum shaped by maturation, blending and a gently fruit-led style. Made from sugar cane juice and distilled using multicolumn distillation, it also draws on the solera system to form its final composition.

A key part of its identity is maturation in American white oak casks that previously held Scotch whisky. That detail gives the rum a distinct place within Centenario's range, while staying close to the brand's traditional ageing approach.

At Drankenshop Broekmans, we see this as a 12-year-old rum for those who enjoy a soft, lightly sweet profile with red fruit, vanilla and a measured touch of wood. It has enough character to be interesting, while remaining smooth and easy to spend time with.

The aroma brings ripe red fruit to the front, supported by a fine woody note. On the palate it is lightly sweet, with vanilla, red fruit and a gentle touch of wood adding shape.

The finish is long and balanced, carrying fruit and vanilla through to the end.

Sugar Cane Juice rum is known for its natural, unadulterated taste of sugar cane. In this rum, the juice is directly fermented and then distilled.

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado a rum at cask strength?

No, Centenario 12y Gran Legado is not rum at cask strength.

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado suitable to give as a gift?

Although this Centenario 12y Gran Legado is not or does not have explicit gift packaging, it can certainly make an excellent gift. Gift packs are usually taken as a safe choice of gift because brands often combine the most accessible or their most popular rum combine with a fun accessory in a nice gift pack. But if you are looking for a gift for an experienced rum-drinker they may not be waiting for yet another glass and then this one Centenario 12y Gran Legado might even be a better choice than such a gift pack.

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado a popular rum?

Absolutely! Centenario 12y Gran Legado is a rum currently featured in our Top Trending. This top includes the 100 products that recorded the biggest increase in sales in our shops over the past 30 days compared to the 30 days before.

These can be new products, products that have been out of stock for a longer period of time, products that only appear once a year or products that have suddenly skyrocketed in popularity (e.g. due to a sudden hype, trend, positive reviews, etc.).

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado een goede keuze voor mij?

This Centenario 12y Gran Legado can be a rum that suits you if you like a rum with a fruity character. Indeed, this fruitiness is quite emphatic in the flavour profile.

However, we recommend that you also look at the rest of the flavour profile, as it is of course only one part of the overall character of this rum.

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado a spicy rum?

On its own, yes, but this Centenario 12y Gran Legado is one rum with only a slightly spicy flavour profile: the spiciness of this rum is not emphatic in the flavour profile, but it is there.

The spiciness of a spirit can come about in different ways.

  • In whisky, the spicy notes mainly arise during the maturation process in wooden casks. The type of wood used (e.g. American oak, European oak) and whether the casks have been used before (e.g. sherry casks) have a big influence on the spiciness of the whisky that comes out of them.
  • With rum, the spicy notes can also come from the barrels used, but in addition there is also a separate class of "Spiced rum" where extra spices are added.
  • Gin has a much shorter production cycle and therefore does not usually get its spiciness from wood. Spicy notes in a gin are usually the direct result of the botanicals used to "colour" the gin and give it its own identity.
Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado a fruity rum?

Yes, Centenario 12y Gran Legado is a rum with a moderately fruity flavour profile: the fruitiness of this rum will be discernible right from the first sip from your glass.

  • Whiskies with a fruity character can range from light and fresh apple notes to deep, ripe stone fruit and exotic aromas. This fruitiness can come from the grains, yeast and fermentation used, the shape of the pot stills and the cask type.
  • Rum made from sugar cane or molasses lends itself ideally to fruity notes. From the fresh citrus aromas of a white rum to the deep pineapple and banana notes of an aged variety - fruitiness is an essential characteristic in many rums. Again, the same factors affect fruitiness as with whisky.
Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado a sweet rum?

Yes, Centenario 12y Gran Legado is a rum with a rather sweet flavour profile: the sweetness of this rum will be detectable right from the first sip from your glass.

While not everyone is a fan of a (very) sweet rum, they are usually among the most accessible. This Centenario 12y Gran Legado therefore constitutes a reasonably safe starting point to get acquainted for the first time with rum.

Do you drink Centenario 12y Gran Legado pure or with ice?

Whether you drink this Centenario 12y Gran Legado rum best with or without ice is a personal choice. We have always chosen not to take a stance on adding water or ice to rum. There are certainly good reasons to add a little water to your rum, but whether it adds value to you or detracts from your enjoyment is something you should mainly discover for yourself.

Does Centenario 12y Gran Legado have a high alcohol content?

This rum from Centenario has a normal alcohol content. Within rum alcohol levels of up to 43% are most common.

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado an independent bottling?

No, Centenario 12y Gran Legado is an official bottling of Centenario.

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado a solera rum?

Yes, Centenario 12y Gran Legado is a rum made using the solera system.

One of the most intriguing methods of maturing rum is the solera system, a technique that comes from Spain and originated in sherry production. The system consists of several layers of barrels, with the bottom layer, called the "solera," containing the oldest rum. The upper layers, the "criaderas," contain younger rum.

The solera system functions by mixing rum from different layers of barrels. When a batch of rum is drained from the bottom layer (solera), the resulting space is filled with rum from the layer above it. In turn, this layer is replenished with rum from the upper layer, and so on. Finally, the upper layer is topped up with new, young rum.

This process ensures that the rum is continuously replenished with young spirit, while older rum contributes to the complexity and depth of flavour.

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado suitable for making a Dark 'n Stormy cocktail?

The "Dark 'n Stormy" cocktail is a protected trademark of Gosling Brothers Ltd. According to official rules, a cocktail may therefore only be called Dark 'N Stormy (with one apostrophe) if it is made with Gosling's Rum and ginger beer.

Since Gosling only registered the name with single apostrophe, the same cocktail is also described elsewhere as a Dark 'n' Stormy (with double apostrophe) or as a Safe Harbor in an attempt to get out from under the trademark and licensing problems.

If you don't mind the official designation and want to make a cocktail based on the recipe of the official Dark 'n Stormy, this Centenario 12y Gran Legado is definitely a good choice. To make an official, correct Dark 'n Stormy, however, you need Gosling's Black Seal rum.

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado vegan?

According to the data currently available to us, we cannot state with certainty that this product is vegan and this claim is not explicitly made by the brand.

Is Centenario 12y Gran Legado a biological rum?

Based on the information available to us, we can conclude that this Centenario 12y Gran Legado rum from Centenario is not an organic product.
