I was reminded this morning of Legacy by Angostura. This limited edition rum is the world’s most expensive at $25,000 per bottle.

Legacy by Angostura is the world’s most expensive rum and is crafted through a unique blend of seven of the most rare and precious rums to be produced by the distillery. In the words of John Georges, Master Distiller at Angostura, “Legacy by Angostura is the ultimate expression of Angostura rum. We set out to create the greatest sipping rum ever produced and we believe we have achieved something that is both unique and unequaled.”

So what makes this rum so special? Legacy is the culmination of nearly 200 years of distilling and blending experience. Angostura has drawn from the the distilling expertise of its Siegert and Fernandes heritage to bring together a unique blend of rums, limited to just 20 bottles throughout the world.

The process has been entirely conducted by hand – from the building of the rum blend, the development of the packaging – a bespoke, limited edition decanter crafted by Asprey of London, jeweler to the Prince of Wales.
