Copper color. Confected aromas and flavors of neapolitan ice cream sundae, chocolate strawberries and cherries, orange marmalade, and waffles with syrup and honey butter with a silky, vibrant, off-dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, appealing, long finish with notes of chocolate orange peels, grand marnier, and pink pepper. A very fruity and flavor-packed aged Rum with an instant, crowd-pleasing appeal as a sipper.

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.
