Clasat Rum. One can feel the rich cask taste from the moment the bottle is opened. Aromatic, matured rum, the woody white oak makes its presence felt throughout the sip, taste and aftertaste. Didn' t expect much from it but it really impressed me.

You pick up the oak in this rum. Its very good, almost too good. I would use it as a sipper. When used as a mixer make sure to have a double so you don't lose the flavor.

($48) This one I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. Popping the cork, I know I’m going to love it. It smells sweet of the Brugal floral note I’ve come to love and even some woody oak tones as well. Very enticing.
The initial flavour is that of a classic Dominican rum with some long oak finish. The finish lasts long as bits of sherry come up to meet you, long after you’ve taken a sip.
Leather, tobacco and a sherry finish. I’m thinking a cigar would go amazingly well with this.
After the second tasting, the cork broke apart. Luckily I keep some old corks. If not for this cork issue, it would be a 10.

RO: asa cum spun si in titlu este fix urmatorul pas in sus fata de XV . alcoolul nu mai e in valuri se simte mai rotund, este un rom mai matur , gustul este apropiat (nu mai simt piper aici)

un XV upgradat , dar greu de spus daca merita difereta de pret

EN: as I say in the title, the next step up compared to XV. the alcohol is no longer in waves, it feels rounder, it is a more mature rum, the taste is close (I don't feel pepper here anymore)

an upgraded XV, but it's hard to say if it's worth the price difference

I'm a big fan of Brugal rums and couldn't wait to get this in the glass. A little disappointed, perhaps my expectations were too high on this one.

Caramel and oaky. This rum is not sweet, rather dry. I think it’d make for a good old fashion. Or just sip neat.

Vůně dřeva a kouře jasně dominuje. Krásně jemný suchý rum. Při popíjení jde cítit práce, která stojí za vytvořením tohoto rumu. Jeden z mých referenčních. Naprosto skvěle vyvážený.

Great sipping rum, it is smooth and balanced. Brugal did a great job with this one.

I really like this rum. I have started to prefer rums with less or no added sugar.
I drink it neat or one ice cube.

Nice amber color, a bit sweet but not to much. Toffee and vanilla. Nice bottle.
