Parce 12 Year Old Straight Colombian Rum is crafted from sugar cane carefully selected from both local (San Cristobal) and foreign (Barbados, Trinidad) sources, all of which is harvested manually every season. Under the guidance of master blenders Arthur and Brojen Fenandes Domecq, the sugar cane is processed and then fermented with natural spring water and homegrown yeast for 36 to 48 hours. Once fermented into “cane wine,” the resulting spirit is distilled through a stainless steel, 4-column still — each still produces a slightly different unaged spirit for use in the final aging and blending process. The spirit is then transferred to spent, charred American oak casks where it is aged for 12 years before being bottled in the lush Andean mountains of Quindío, Colombia.

Distillery Information
Parce was founded by Jim Powers and his two brothers Patrick and Brian in 2012. Previously all from Chicago, Jim was living in New York City and working in A&R while Brian was living in Vail, Colorado. Patrick had been in Colombia since the 1990s to expand the family’s water, oil and gas pipeline business. The brothers all met in Colombia three months after their dad died in 2010. They decided to make a sipping rum in honor of their father. The brothers employed Arthur Fernandes and Brojen Domecq Fernandes as master blenders.
