ENGLISH HARBOUR 5 YEARS OLD
In the early 20th century a number of the individual Antiguan rum shops joined together to form the Antigua Distillery Ltd. The distillery shifted from production of full bodied aged rums to much lighter bodied varieties in the 1960's and production carries on to this day. Their distillation processes involve using copper stills and bakers yeast to produce their unique rums. English Harbour Five Years Old Rum is one of a range of premium aged rums bearing the English Harbour name. It is fermented with bakers yeast, distilled in copper stills and matured in oak barrels for exceptional smoothness. It can be consumed straight, on the rocks, with water, in cocktails or with any of the world's popular mixers. Other rums produced by Antigua Distillery include English Harbour 3 Years Old, Extra Old, 15 Years Old, 20 Years Old and White Rum varieties plus Cavalier Antigua Rum.
