Brugal 1888

Bardzo łatwy w odbiorze, alkohol dobrze ukryty. Piłem jakiś czas temu, ale wspominam dobrze :)
Na początek wyjścia ze strefy "rumy tylko do drinków" jest super.

Na tento rum jsem se docela těšil a právě proto možná menší zklamání. Nejdříve jsem viděl poměrně příznivou video recenzi člověka, který má hodně napito a docela si jej pochvaloval. Při koupi jsem se těšil, že jej také konečně ochutnám, ale i po druhém ochutnávání se mnou nic neudělal. Podle mne takový docela zajímavý rum, který mne osobně nechytl, ale není ani vyloženě špatný.

This was the first dark rum i discovered when I started my journey. Got a bottle in SDQ. Nice Carmel tones with some leather. Goes down very smooth. It’s still my go to rum and never leave my shelf without if for long.

Always enjoyable, whether in a mixed drink, on ice, or taken as a shot.

Balanced, not too much of any aspect. Can be used as a sipper or a mixer. Def one I will buy again.

Bruine rum, lekker maar mag iets zoeter voor mij. Ook een rum die in de smaak zou vallen bij menig whisky drinker.

it's good, it's just not my rum to go back to. would still mix it rather then sip it, hence the 7.

Of the rums I have tried recently, this one had a taste that I couldn't quite identify the first few times I tried it. This last time I decided that leather best described what I was tasting, a first for me. Later on in the glass I could taste the oakiness that I had expected. Overall a nice sipping experience.

Has that distinctive Dominican flavour that is crisp and hints of sweet grass. Very smooth finish...almost goes down too easy. Definitely a new distinct one for my top shelf.

Well balanced rum good price. Not so sweet with a well-defined body.
