Before I started writing reviews here, I tried the Angostura 7 Year and absolutely hated it. This family of rums is so different from the more commonly marketed brands that one can easily be put off by trying one of these first. Now that I have an appreciation for their 1919 and 1824 with their very unique taste, it was time to give the 7-Year another try. The store was out of that one, so I gave this 5-Year a try for only $21.

It is pale yellowish gold and exudes infancy. The same unique aroma of it's older brothers is apparent, but that is where the similarities end. It is a pretty smooth and dry rum, but it would be better suited to being served with ginger ale as I recommended for their 1919. So this one is too young and the 1824 is too rich and costly, which means that their 1919 is the best value for sipping. I just had to find out for myself.

As an after note, mixing one part Angostura 5 Year with two parts ginger ale and served over lots of ice cubes in a tall glass makes for one very refreshing and unique tropical drink. If it were only $6 cheaper, I could also recommend it as a good bargain buy. I will still buy this one again specifically to make the drink just described. It's THAT good! But don't drink it neat or on the rocks!

If you want a mixer rum that hides itself in the cocktail, this one is not it. It renders itself obvious that Angostura is in the unmistakable mix.

Gott med lite söt rom efter libanesisk middag. Kryddig.

No hangover and nice flavour while mixing with coke and lime.
It makes the warm nigths colder and fatigue disapears.

Had this at the bar, and while generally I became favoring white ones, this also was nicely balanced set of spice. Bottle without butterfly as of now, but only one, I find here with 5 years too.

Kurdee fajny nawet... Ma coś w sobie... Trzeba przyznać że jest tam nuta czegoś co mnie zaskakuje bo dotychczas nie spotykałem w rumie

Lehký rum s nevýrazným, lehce dřevitým aroma, ve kterém dominují nejspíše citrusy. Chutí ničím neohromí, ale ani neurazí. Je jemná a trochu nasládlá. V této cenové relaci můžu tuhle lahev určitě doporučit k vyzkoušení.

Buen ron pero para tomar con hielo o en algún trago. Fuerte aroma y de un color dorado tenue.

This is a fine rum for his price, I'd say he is more of a cocktail rum than a sipper, but I'm growing in to it.
Nose is really boozy.
Tast is reafreshing, sweet and sharp whit nuty and vanilla flaveors.

Light, hits you with pineapple and berry. Finishes like sweet salt water taffy. Middle of the road but more interesting flavour than most in this price range.

Definitely nice rum for the price. I got the third bottle. Reminds me Appleton Estate 12 years, but simplified.
