DESCRIPTION: Dark rum whose name comes from rum casks dated 1919 that were saved from a mighty fire in 1932 at the Government Rum Consortium. That rum was then blended and became known as 1919. This brand became so famous that the Angostura House decided to reintroduce it over the years. Of course, modern rum no longer contains any trace of the 1919 rum. It is composed of a blend of rums matured in ex-bourbon barrels, and the youngest of the blend is 8 years old. Entirely matured in the climate of Trinidad
