The newest addition to the House of Angostura’s family of premium rums. Colour: Rich mahogany with bronze highlights. Nose: A sweet bouquet of banana, dried fruit and oak with top notes of apples. Taste: Well balanced, a medium bodied palate with hints of dried prunes and sweet rounded oak notes entwined with toffee nuances. Finish: Long and crisp.
For 5 years, this rum remains in oak barrels ageing so that when it’s ready to be enjoyed, it reveals its deep character. It presents chocolate, spice, vanilla and toasted oak flavours and provides a remarkably warm and mellow finish. It can be enjoyed neat as a sipping rum, or over ice, but its deep character lends to being mixed with stronger mixes, spices and herbs.

Sip and enjoy this extraordinary and sensually crafted blend neat, on the rocks with your favorite cigar or in a great 1824 Manhattan.
Angostura 1919 celebrates a very particular date in the development of the rum industry in Trinidad & Tobago, as well as the Caribbean. After a fire in 1932, which destroyed the Government Rum Bond, the Master Blender of Fernandes Distillers, J.B. Fernandes, bought the charred casks, only to discover they had been filled in the year 1919. The prized rum was skillfully blended and called “1919 Aged Rum.”
This rum is aged for a minimum of seven years in ‘once used’ bourbon casks until it can be bottled and enjoyed to the full. This rum is packed with mouth watering flavours that include maple, chocolate, honey and toffee and presents a rich full-bodied taste that tapers off in to the classic rum finish. It can be enjoyed neat as a sipping rum, or over ice, equally it can mix a stunning contemporary take on a Manhattan or an Old Fashioned.
Angostura® Reserva is supple and luxurious. Aged for 3 years in oak casks, it possesses a dry taste with a rich and warm flavour of vanilla and a finish that is incredibly smooth. This warm, colourful, creamy, gentle rum, is perfect for mixing with seasonal fruits to create light cocktails.
“A cocktail cabinet without Angostura is like a kitchen without salt and pepper.” ANGOSTURA® aromatic bitters adds a layer of complexity, intensifies the flavor of other ingredients, counteracts the harshness of acidic contents and decreases the harshness of spirits. But it doesn’t stop there – it also helps cleanse the palate and aid in digestion. Ever had an Old Fashioned, Manhattan, Pink Gin or Mai Tai? Then you’ve experienced ANGOSTURA® aromatic bitters. It’s the can’t-miss bottle behind the bar, featuring an over-sized label and distinct yellow cap.
The latest innovation from the House of Angostura. Amaro di ANGOSTURA® is derived from the bespoke process used in creating the House of Angostura’s iconic aromatic bitters. It is a deep amber colour, offering aromas of cinnamon, dark chocolate and unmistakeable ANGOSTURA® aromatic bitters. The finish is perfectly balanced, exotic, lush and reminiscent of the essence of Trinidad and Tobago’s pulsating rhythms, tropical climate and beauty. This beautiful liqueur can be enjoyed over ice, is splendid on its own and offers delicious harmony in a cocktail.
Made from its own special recipe, ANGOSTURA® orange bitters is a complex blend of tropical oranges and spices. “The soul of an exceptional dry martini”; it is wonderfully versatile and pairs perfectly with vodka, gin and whisky. It also adds a depth of flavour to rum cocktails. Its complexity and layers of flavour also make it a culinary must-have ingredient. A perfect accompaniment to savoury sauces, seafood and chocolate.
