Angostura 1919 8-Year rum

Angostura 1919 8-Year

Trinidad and Tobago | Aged | 40% ABV

Angostura 1919 rum is produced in Trinidad by blending a combination of light and heavy molasses distilled rums. These rums spend at least 8 years aging in American oak bourbon barrels.

The name Angostura "1919" refers to the event in 1932 when Angostura's distillery was destroyed by fire. Miraculously, a handful of barrels filled with rum from 1919 survived and were purchased by J.B. Fernandes - the master blender of Fernandes Distillers.

Un rhum parfait pour se lancer dans la découverte des rhums vieux. Excellent rapport qualité prix pour ce rhum à la couleur or possédant un nez vanillé très prononcé. En bouche on retrouve la vanille avec de légères pointe d'épices en milieu de bouche.

It's a good sipping rum...just not as good as 1824

This is a very good rum. It is a light amber color and a sweet flavor. My only problem is it does have a little harshness in the finish. Adding in 1 ice cube solves this.

I really enjoyed this rum. Too my nose I smell vanilla and cocoa. It has a good taste for sipping and mixing with coke zero. It was in a bit higher price range than my usual Chairmans Reserve , but it wasnt crazy expensive. Gonna find the 1824 next and see how it compares. Overall a good rum that I will be drinking regularly

N- Not often rum improve with breathing, but this one an exceptional. Initially with white fruit and condensed milk + black tea, very local 'teh-xi'. Watery, mineral in the middle and molasses syrup at tail, masked with sugar on each sniff. Then ice cream soda, root beer with charred peels emerged, capped with delicious vanilla ice cream and balanced subtle wood and solvent floral notes. (87/21)

P- Sweet and subdue initially, then get whiff of medicinal along fresh pine and antiseptic nuance, sounds like detergent I know, but don't taste like it, so no worry. Semi dry, peppery and waxy, the medicinal part works well with the creamy coat. (87/21)

F- Medium, vanilla fudge, plenty of tart fruits linger, broad with good depth. (86/20)

Body/Balance:- Ordinary at the beginning, but body builds up overtimes make every subsequent sips taste better then the earlier. (87/21)

Weighted Rate:- 83pt

A rum that should be in every amateur bar. Taste is vanilla like and not too alcoholic, be careful you could drink it like milk it's so good!

ANGOSTURA 1919... väärt rumm mille maitse ja aroom on lihtsalt nii head.... Sa avad korgi ilusal kandilisel pudelil ja need meeldivad tammevaadi aroomid ja see tammine maitse... Hind 30 euro kanti pole sugugi palju selle nektari eest. Nautle puhtalt jää ja laimiviiluga. Ja cocacola jäta kohe kindlalt capten morgani jaoks!!!!!

Un rhum d'âge moyen à la robe reconnaissable entre toutes. Cet Angostura est un rhum très parfumé au nez réellement impressionnant, son nez vanillé est exquis et agréablement relevée par une bouche épicée, plus agressive qui tempère la dégustation d'une manière des plus agréables.
Une valeur sûre.
