Nice sweat rum and it often served in in clubs but from all the i have tried this always gives me a bit of an hangover the day after

this is a lovely addition to any cupboard of someone who has a dry palette, goes lovely with a mixer and is an amazing cocktail rum ... spent many nights in dominican republic drinking this

Rum dolce, poco persistente e con un finale deludente, appena sufficiente per bevute spensierate.

Bottle with screw cap a little unexciting
Amber colour
Pleasant but quite alcoholic nose
Sweetness 2/5
Nice aroma of gentle vanilla and dried fruit but short lasting with moderate burn.

Brugal is at the Cognac end of rum. This one nice enough as a quick sipper but next to Zacapa 23 there is a distinct lack of flavour.

I prefer rums which are not as dry as this one, but there is hardly an alcohol burn (it is even tasting somewhat watery). Main flavour is smoke and oak. Nothing special as a sipping rum.

Brugal Reserva Anejo 40% (Dominican Republic)

Eye: Lovely copper

Nose: At first sniff Brugal seem a little “hazy” but after just a few minutes the immature alcohol fog clears and reveals a shy composite smell of treacle, margarine, oak, brown sugar, caramel. It has that youngish ethanol feature I really don´t care for in a rum. Then a lot of blood orange squeeze, white pepper and vanilla. It´s not bad at all, just a little young, uncertain and unnecessarily held back. At the end the orange turns sweeter and the caramel and honey tones becomes more dominant, which in this on is a good thing. Enough with the smelling, let´s see what young Brugal has to offer on the palate.

Mouth: It´s a bit harsh I think but with excellent middle register which consists of a lovely mix of orange, honey, caramel and oak. Rather thin, I would say but it kind of works here as the sweetness is more “upbeat” than many other young rums I´ve tasted lately. And now it even smells better. Of course, it is still astringent and far too unsecure to play with the big boys (or the big girls for that matter – any girl really) but, apart from the electric alcohol fumes, it is pretty consistent. I like the “taste” but not the “feel” in Brugal. Light to medium bodied with a medium taste length but the alcohol is clinging to the palate and gums like a badger to a boot.

Reaction: I actually enjoyed this unruly hobbit of a rum. Mostly I admire the harmonious middle and I have to say I could drink this again if someone pays for it. The empty glass now has a peculiar scent of gooseberry together with mackerel and smoked salmon. A rum that produces that at this age has my respect and. I like it because it is weird.

68p

Price: Ca 300 SEK
Tasted: 2016, in a Riedel Sommelier Cognac XO glass at room temperature.

If you want that hot, full rum taste in your mixed drinks, this is for you. I am more into the premium sipping rums myself, but as a mixing rum it holds up well.

This was the rum they served in our all-inclusive resort at the bar. Had two of those everyday for a week 😀. It grew on me and I came to like the high alcohol bite it has.

You don't want to sip this one. But mix it with some coke and you'll be all good.
