Amber color. Interesting aromas and flavors of pistachio latte and coffee cake with tarragon cream with a satiny, bright, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a smooth, complex, long finish conveying notes of spumoni gelato, coconut milk and cream, and sarsaparilla float. A wonderfully spicy and herbal aged rum with a distinctive tarragon note that will be fun to play with in cocktails.

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.
