Clear dark amber color. Overripe, creamy, baked, attractive, tropical aromas of peanut butter and banana, coconut cream, coconut flakes, pineapple skins and mixed nuts, and dusty with a creamy, moderately sweet light-to-medium body and a warming, medium-length banana cream, coconut cream, brown sugar, maple cream, oyster shell, oatmeal raisin cookie, sea water, and baking spices finish. A creamy delight that begs to mixed with something hot.

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.
