Skid Row 18 and Life is a single origin ultra premium rum released to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the band's hit '18 and Life', bottled at 45% ABV.
It was aged in American oak barrels in Guyana and then finished in teak wood leggers in Europe.
It shows deep tones of nougat with hints of toasted coconut and vanilla bean, rich caramel sweetness and warm oak.
The rum is a Brands For Fans collaboration with Skid Row, alongside the band's Midnight Vodka.
With the Skid Row logo and 18 and Life badge on its label, it is a must-have for rock fans and a smooth sipping rum for any rum lover.
Aged rum is one of the most diverse spirits in the world, shaped by the sugarcane, the still and the warm climates where it matures, which speed up the interaction between spirit and wood.
