ANGOSTURA 1787
AN EXQUISITE SIPPING RUM, ANGOSTURA 1787 COMMEMORATES THE ESTABLISHMENT OF TRINIDAD & TOBAGO’S FIRST SUGAR MILL AND FINE RUM PRODUCTION.
In 1787 the country’s first sugar mill was established at Lapeyrouse Estate. This marked Trinidad’s climb to the heights of fine rum production and the decline of European imported drinks. By the end of the 18th century rum had become universally popular.
It is this legacy that Angostura keeps alive with the exquisite homage that is Angostura 1787 rum. A rich bounty, not just the golden crystals of sugar, but that fascinating new spirit, rum, distilled from its secondary product, molasses.
