While the 15 Year is a three-master-blender collaboration, the 25 Year is an even more extraordinary achievement — distilled in 1999 by then-master blender Jerry Edwards on a single column still, then carefully monitored through the tenures of Allen Smith and finally brought to bottling by current master blender Trudiann Branker in 2025. Twenty-five years in ex-bourbon American oak barrels under Barbados's relentless tropical heat — where angel's share losses of 10 to 15% annually make quarter-century aged rum genuinely rare in the Caribbean — produced something that Robb Report called superb after sampling both expressions. Bottled at a more powerful 47% ABV than the 15 Year, non-chill filtered, with no added sugar or flavoring. The nose opens with vanilla, red fruit, caramel, citrus, and dark chocolate, while the palate delivers deeper, more concentrated complexity than the 15 Year — richer oak, more pronounced dried fruit, dark chocolate intensity, and a profound depth that only 25 tropical years can produce, finishing extraordinarily long with lingering spice, cocoa, and warm oak. Only 2,376 bottles exist worldwide — fewer than half the production of the 15 Year. A bottle for the ages from the distillery that invented the category.
