Angostura 1787 Super Premium Caribbean Rum is a luxurious 15-year-old blend of rums, each meticulously aged in second-hand American oak barrels. This exquisite rum is a tribute to the year the first sugar mill was established in Trinidad at the renowned Lapeyrouse sugar plantation. Crafted from a hand-selected variety of rums, the Angostura 1787 offers a symphony of flavors that include ripe bananas, dried fruits, and nuanced touches of toffee apples.
On the nose, this rum greets you with lush aromas of banana, dried fruit, and oaky notes. The palate reveals a complex interplay of dried prunes, balanced oak notes entwined with toffee and caramel, leading to a long, dry, and crisp finish. The aroma and taste are harmoniously intricate, showcasing notes of dried fruit, banana, apple, exotic tropical fruits, toffee, and back plums.
Produced by the esteemed Angostura Distillery located in Trinidad and Tobago, this rum is a testament to a long-standing heritage that dates back to 1820. Johann Benjamin Siegert, a German doctor and scientist, initially established the distillery in Venezuela, gaining global recognition for its cocktail bitters. Over time, Angostura has evolved into one of the Caribbean's most important rum producers. The 1787 blend, selected by the Master Blender, has been aging for at least fifteen years in charred oak barrels, resulting in a rum of exceptional quality.
Since its release in 2016, the Angostura 1787 has garnered much acclaim. This super premium rum, with its rich mahogany color, can be favorably compared to the Angostura Rum 1919, although it surpasses it in maturity with an additional three years of aging. The Angostura 1787 stands as a monumental product, reflecting the distillery's commitment to producing world-class rums.
