English Harbour 5 Year Old Rum
English Harbour rum is made in Antigua at the Antigua Distillery Ltd. This distillery was formed back in 1932, when several shop owners, who sold their homemade rum, got together to start one company to supply the country with rum. In the early days, they made two different rums and wanted to expand, so they bought a local sugar factory and started producing their Molasses. That's the same sugar that they use to make English Harbour Rum.
The reason for its success is simply down to the taste. It is distilled in copper stills and aged in small 220-liter charred oak barrels to give it a uniquely silky and mellow flavor.
English Harbour 5-Year-Old is a medium-bodied, spicy, smooth rum with luscious smoke, vanilla, and brown sugar flavors, followed by coconut and tangerine. The palate entry offers rich caramelized notes—hints of cinnamon and chocolate accent the finish.
