Lo­cal rum gi­ant An­gos­tu­ra has of­fi­cial­ly stepped up as a part­ner for the Trin­ba­go Knight Rid­ers (TKR) ahead of the Re­pub­lic Bank Caribbean Pre­mier League (CPL) sea­son, plac­ing its flag­ship White Oak brand front and cen­ter for the up­com­ing cam­paign.

​The col­lab­o­ra­tion aligns one of the re­gion’s most dom­i­nant sport­ing fran­chis­es with one of its most recog­nis­able com­mer­cial brands, guar­an­tee­ing ex­po­sure for An­gos­tu­ra White Oak rum to cre­ate mean­ing­ful con­nec­tions with con­sumers.

​High­light­ing the deep-root­ed con­nec­tion be­tween sports and lo­cal cul­ture, An­gos­tu­ra chief ex­ec­u­tive of­fi­cer (CEO) Ian Forbes not­ed that join­ing forces with the four-time CPL cham­pi­ons was a nat­ur­al fit for the brand.

​“Crick­et has a unique way of bring­ing peo­ple to­geth­er across the Caribbean, and the CPL cap­tures that spir­it,” Forbes said. “Join­ing the TKR team al­lows our An­gos­tu­ra White Oak brand to be part of the ex­cite­ment and cel­e­bra­tion. We wish them every suc­cess for the 2026 sea­son.”

​TKR Busi­ness and Op­er­a­tions Man­ag­er Ka­iron Ser­rette wel­comed the part­ner­ship, fram­ing it as a syn­er­gy of lo­cal iden­ti­ty and sport­ing am­bi­tion.

​“TKR is pleased to wel­come An­gos­tu­ra White Oak as an Of­fi­cial Part­ner for CPL 2026,” Ser­rette said. “We val­ue this part­ner­ship as a cel­e­bra­tion of Caribbean ex­cel­lence, pride, and uni­ty, and look for­ward to an ex­cit­ing sea­son to­geth­er.”

​As the re­gion­al show­piece pre­pares to bowls off, An­gos­tu­ra White Oak is set to fea­ture promi­nent­ly across match­day broad­casts and fan en­gage­ments as TKR pur­sues an­oth­er CPL ti­tle.
