Aged RumRum that is aged, but no specific type or size barrel required. No set time required for length of aging, but will often carry an age statement (which should be taken with a grain of salt). Often thought of as "sipping rums".

Tasting Notes
"Roasty aromas of toasted oak, cinnamon and coffee beans reach the nose. The palate echos that roastiness with warm cola spices, clove, fresh ginger, and brown sugar along with earthy espresso and dark chocolate. Herbal notes of thyme and sweet mint hit the midpalate, adding some refreshment to the finish, which is long and satisfying, if a wee bit hot. "
