Grand Anejo Butterfly label Rum can trace it's origins to the village of Angostura in Venezuala during the South American wars of independence against colonial rule. The secret recipe migrated along with the Siegert familt to Trinidad where Angostura Bitters and the extremely fine Angostura Grand Anejos are still made. A powerful and flavoursome Caribbean Rum with pleasing dark amber hue, warranted for a minimum of seven years ageing in American oak barrels.

Trinidad Distiller's Limited became the home of Angostura Rum in the early 1900s. In 1904 Angostura was granted an appointment to the King of Prussia and in 1907 to King Alfonso XIII of Spain. A few years later Angostura (Dr. J.G.B. Siegert & Sons Limited) won appointment to the court of Great Britain's King George V
