We have introduced a Limited-Edition artistic rendition of our packaging for iconic premium rum, Angostura Founders Reserve 1824®.  

This Art of Rum packaging is available in four different designs and created by leading contemporary artists from Trinidad and Tobago – Sarah Knights, Nicholas Huggins, Shawn Chong-Ashing and Bianca Peake.  

“The Angostura Founders Reserve 1824® Limited-Edition art of rum packaging honours our legacy and craftsmanship while embracing the creativity of modern artists who help tell our story in a new, visually appealing way. Each box in this Limited-Edition release is a collector’s item for both rum enthusiasts and connoisseurs of fine art.”

– Angostura’s CEO (Ag.), Mr. Ian Forbes

This high-end rum is symbolic of the year that the world-renowned ANGOSTURA® aromatic bitters was invented by Dr. Johann G.B. Siegert. 

With illustrations, bespoke graphics and bright visuals, each artist has designed a distinct theme for the Limited-Edition packaging. Sarah Knight, an artist known for her portrayal of issues of identity with women in modern societies, explored the feminine identity by paying tribute to local fashion culture. Nicholas Huggins showcases T&T’s much-loved culture through his use of local motifs and dramatic colours to capture the spirit of the country. 

Shawn Chong-Ashing, an award-winning illustrator and graphic designer chose to represent dance through the ages. This design references the smooth flow of the nation’s culture through the depiction of a belé dancer and a masquerader. Bianca Peake’s exclusive design pays homage to Trinbagonian identity through her distinctive watercolour artwork, exploring our sense of self as a nation in a declaration of identity through art.  

This Limited-Edition art of rum packaging is available at Angostura Solera Wines and Spirits at M6 Plaza, Chaguanas; Gopaul Lands, Marabella; Albion Energy Plaza, Port of Spain; Angostura’s head office, Laventille and East Gates Mall, Trincity. It will also be available in duty free stores.
