Angostura 1919 isn’t just a rum, it’s a piece of Caribbean history. Its name recalls the year a fire destroyed Trinidad’s government rum storage, and surviving barrels, charred yet still holding liquid gold, revealed a remarkably smooth, complex spirit. Today, Angostura recreates that moment with a premium aged rum that celebrates resilience, craftsmanship, and island elegance. This gift pack makes it not just a drink, but a story worth sharing.
