Core Range of English Harbour Rum
Built around English Harbour 5 Year Old and 10 Year Old, this range represents the signature style of our distillery, with each rum carefully aged in oak barrels to achieve balance, depth, and a refined character.
English Harbour 5 Year Old
Antigua has long been celebrated for producing elegant, well-balanced rums, and English Harbour 5 Year Old continues this tradition with confidence.
Aged for a minimum of five years in the tropical climate of Antigua, this rum is released at optimal maturity, offering a refined yet approachable profile.
Tasting Notes
Warm amber in colour. Aromas of mild spice, banana bread, and toasted nuts lead into a palate of dried apricot, toffee, roasted nuts, and brown spice. The finish is clean, balanced, and gently lingering with notes of tropical fruit.
An approachable, everyday premium rum with real depth and character.
