Highball Express Rare 18Y 40% 0,7 l

Highball Express Rare 18Y is a premium rum blend built around an 18-year-old rum from Trinidad in the southern Caribbean. This mature base is complemented by rums from Guyana, the Dominican Republic, Barbados, and Jamaica. The result is a five-component blend with a full body, rich flavor, and a distinctive Caribbean character.

The rum from Trinidad brings depth and maturity to the blend, while rums from other Caribbean countries expand the flavor profile with sweeter, spicy, and woody notes. Highball Express Rare 18Y thus offers a balanced combination of cocoa, vanilla, and woody spices that feels full-bodied, smooth, and pleasantly warming.
