Building on his early success, Dr. Siegert established the House of Angostura in the eponymous Venezuelan city, where he began to manufacture his bitters on a grander scale (the business would later become the sole purveyor of bitters to the King of Prussia, Spain, and King George V). As he continued to expand, Dr. Siegart, along with his younger brother and his son, moved the House of Angostura to Port of Spain, Trinidad in 1876 and began producing rum. Today they are one of the leading rum producers in the Caribbean, offering a wide range of the famous spirit.The No. 1 Oloroso Sherry from their limited-edition Cask Collection series is a blend of colum-still rums aged up to 22 years and the very first Angostura rum to be matured in sherry casks. After its initial maturation in American oak, it goes into oloroso sherry casks for an additional 9 months, resulting in a smooth and complex spirit with dried fruit notes. “Angostura Cask Collection No. 1 Oloroso Sherry is a masterwork, a one-of-a-kind rum that reaches the highest achievement in the rum world an exquisite roundness and smoothness without sacrificing personality,” said Angostura CEO Genevieve Jodhan of this release.Get one of these limited-edition bottles today!
