Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of coconut, chocolate covered almonds, espresso beans in coconut cream, and gingerbread and walnut with a round, vibrant, fruity medium body and a long finish that exhibits nuances of almond joy, candied coconut, vanilla extract, and marzipan and milk chocolate with hazelnut and nutmeg. Like an Almond Joy in a glass, there is just layer upon layer of candied coconut with chocolate and almond through out.

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.
