About Fernandes Black Label
Fernandes Black Label is a Trinidad rum that Angostura calls the signature rum of the Fernandes name, which survives in its group as Fernandes Distillers Limited, a dormant company wholly owned by its subsidiary Trinidad Distillers. It is one of four classic local rum brands Angostura says held up in 2025 against new and aggressive competitors, and that year it was promoted through a cocktail programme in bars, paired with live parang at Christmas.
