Angostura 15 Year Old "1787"
Angostura's 15 Year Old "1787" rum, launched in the latter half of 2016, presents a dark hue with a substantial flavour profile characterised by dried fruit, toasted oak, and robust spice. This distinguished Trinidadian rum is particularly suitable for sipping neat. The name commemorates the year the first sugar mill was established at the Lapeyrouse Estate. The aroma reveals notes of apricot pastries, rum-soaked sultanas, and a pronounced hint of cinnamon bark. On the palate, a softly charred oak smokiness is initially prominent, quickly mellowed by the richness of additional dried fruit. The aftertaste features honey, crunchy brown sugar, and a subtle suggestion of new leather.
Pyrat XO Rum
Pyrat XO Reserve Rum is a richly flavoured Caribbean spirit crafted from a blend of aged rums sourced primarily from the West Indies. Distilled in small batches and matured in a combination of French Limousin and American oak barrels, it embodies a distinctive character shaped by time, tradition, and tropical ageing. The bottle itself, inspired by old Caribbean rum decanters, reflects the brand’s homage to maritime heritage and the spirit of the seafaring age. On the nose, Pyrat XO offers an intense bouquet of candied orange peel, vanilla, and sweet spices, underpinned by hints of molasses and toasted oak. The palate is smooth and full-bodied, with layers of citrus zest, caramel, cinnamon, and honeyed fruit, leading to a long, warming finish with a touch of spice and lingering sweetness. Its bold yet approachable profile makes it ideal for sipping neat or as a luxurious base for premium rum cocktails.
