Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of cinnamon sugar, flambéed bananas, apricot marmalade, and mocha and black tea with a velvety, dry medium body and a very long finish revealing nuances of buttery caramel cream, fresh cinnamon roll, buttered banana bread, and chocolate covered bitter orange. A Rum of excellent quality and authenticity; tastes of pot still and carries natural sweetness balanced with delicate bitterness.

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.
