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
"This rum is incredibly funky on the nose, with aromas ranging from warm butterscotch to sweet banana to farmyard. Flavor-wise, it's quite savory, with a touch of saltiness, cedar wood, cinnamon spice and vegetal notes. If you're after an easy, sweet rum, this isn't for you. But if you want something with character and complexity, give it a go (if you can snag a bottle)."
