Dark amber color. Aromas and flavors of fresh roasted coffee beans, dark chocolate, and roasted nuts and apples with a satiny, bright, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a warming, nuanced, long finish with overtones of brown spices and roasted coconut and tropical fruits.

About

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.
