Product description
The history of the Angostura brand begins in 1824, when in the Venezuelan town of the same name, a German doctor began perfecting his blends based on aromatic herbs.
His goal was to find a remedy for the stomach problems of soldiers in the Venezuelan army. Soon after, Dr. Johann Siegert left the army and started producing his herbal liqueurs. In time, his company became the official supplier to the royal courts of Prussia, Spain and Great Britain. Today, Angostura is a world-famous brand of herbal liqueurs and high-quality Caribbean rums.
Contrary to widespread belief, the bark of the Angostura trifolata tree is not used to produce Angostura liqueurs and rums, and the brand name comes from the town where it all began, later renamed Ciudad Bolivar.
Angostura Reserva Premium is a white rum, distilled in a five-column rectification system at the Angostura distillery, matured for 3 years in oak barrels after American bourbon. Its bouquet is light and floral, offering herbal accents, citrus, a bit of mint, white pepper, delicate notes of berries and mango, a touch of nuts.
