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.

This was drinkable for sure, but outside of a lot of burn, there wasn't much complexity to the flavor or really anything going on, I felt. Good for mixing, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

A bit boring, but still smooth and balanced... alcohol well hidden. In my opinion better as mixer than saute.

Aroma is a bit acute. Smooth taste and solid body.

On the nose a slight touch of vanilla which is nice.
Palate is smooth and unoffensive. Very sweet.
Aftertaste short.

En total flopp. Första intrycket är fint med härliga dofter men när romen väl inmundigas känns den blaskig och i förhållande till doften väldigt smakfattig.
😋 yummy.
Spicy aroma smooth vanilla notes.
Great in eggnog and bananas foster bread pudding.

At the tasting, the pourer skipped the 5 and 7-years and went straight to this. It tastes about as you would expect... caramel, hint of tobacco. Could serve well as an upscale mixer or easy sipper.
Interestingly, the pourer stressed that Angostura adds no color or sweeteners to their rum, which I believe is commonly known to be untrue. I'd like to dock a point for uninformed/misleading brand ambassadors, but this really is a rum with no surprises, and holds its own.
Might I suggest a 2070 Swizzle?
