Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of vanilla, deep roasted caramel with pistachio, caramel and toasted oak, coconut cream, and root beer with a velvety, dryish medium body and a medium-to-long finish that presents overtones of vanilla marshmallow, banana cream, nutmeg and butter, and baked peach. Very barrel forward characteristics with the essence of Rum underneath.

Rum Aged more than 3 Years

Añejo and Age-Dated Rums are aged Rums from different vintages or batches that are mixed together to insure a continuity of flavor in brands of Rum from year to year. Some aged Rums will give age statements stating the youngest Rum in the blend (e.g., 10-year-old Rum contains a blend of Rums that are at least 10 years old). A small number of French island Rums are Vintage Dated.
