I have this rum from a cousin, is very good, at the end the taste is not as smooth and sweet as you could have imagined but all in one i think is a very good option to drink straight or even mixed.

Smooth, Not too sweet with a hint of cinnamon. One of my new favorites.

Not a big fan of Brugal, but this one might pass. Very sweet though.

More subdued than XV, but the whole rum is buried under very unpleasant wooden flavor. The whole brand seems to be riddled with it, from the cheapest to Leyenda, and I did not dare to try more expensive Brugals with this reputation.

I鈥檝e been sipping it slowly trying to find the taste I did not like. Well it鈥檚 the cork if it wasnt of that over persistance of the cork taste it would be okay but now I鈥檓 disapointed I purchased it

Firts it鈥檚 a chock, you get a strong alcohol dry taste. Then you begin to taste the wood and for 5 to 10 minutes u still enjoy the soft taste. If it wasn鈥檛 for the strong alcohol taste in the beginning it would be a 9 for me. Definitely a good longaftertasty rum!

This is the first rum I bought as a sipper. I have since learned to stay away from bourbon cask rums, but this one wasn鈥檛 too bad. It was smooth and wasn鈥檛 overwhelming with the whiskey like quality that some rums can get from bourbon barrels.
Update: Excuse my foolishness. This is delightful rum that my virgin palate could not fully appreciate on first taste. I highly recommend this easily accessible, dry rum.

I had the liquor store here bring it in. It鈥檚 very tasty but again I mix it. It鈥檚 good but has that twang that I don鈥檛 like but mixed with coke it鈥檚 amazing.

Excellent rum. I usually pay little mind to the packaging of spirits, I am a single malt man after all, but it is worth noting that in this instance Brugal has matched the innards to the outards perfectly. The whole presentation and tasting experience is true luxury and the deco themed bottled simply fits.
First pour this is a dry smokey rum with strong notes of raw grassy cane. It works well with the oak. Second pour the sweetness comes through more and the oak starts to give off vanilla while the nose picks up hints of Rocky Road ice cream. I like this Rum very much. Pricey but worth it when your dressing up.
