KShs4,145 incl. of VAT
Angostura 5 Years Old Superior Gold Rum carries oak-derived vanilla, chocolate and toasted spice from its minimum five-year maturation. It offers more depth than lighter rum styles while remaining flexible for mixed drinks. Its balance of ageing and mixability makes it a useful reference point for age-verified customers comparing aged rum in Kenya, especially where both cocktail versatility and cask character matter.
Tasting Notes
The nose opens with brûlée sugar, vanilla and warm baking spice, layered with toasted oak, molasses and faint chocolate. A light caramel note gives the aroma depth without making it feel heavy. On the palate, the rum shows buttery vanilla, cocoa and soft caramel, supported by oak spice and molasses warmth. The bourbon oak ageing contributes a gentle toasted character, while the blend keeps the texture rounded and approachable.
The finish is creamy, spicy and lightly toasted, marked by vanilla, chocolate, oak spice and caramelised sugar, leaving a warm Caribbean rum impression.
Serve Guide
Angostura 5 Years Old Superior Gold Rum can be served neat, over ice, in a highball or in tropical rum cocktails, depending on preference. Its vanilla, spice and chocolate notes can complement dark chocolate, caramel desserts, grilled pineapple and lightly spiced dishes.
For food-led adult occasions, its toasted oak character can sit beside barbecue dishes, roasted meats and rich desserts, where caramelised flavours mirror the rum’s cask-derived notes.
