The rum is a little dry, with bitter tones, a lot of spices in the smell and you nose the casks where it matured. The rum is smooth and soft, really a good first experience with a higher-grade (older) Brugal.

The nose opens on some tropical flowers and spices.
Then taste vanilla, toffee and honey.
A good balance of sweetness, some may call it too dry, and some purist even too sweet, I think it is just balanced for me. But overall it didn't make me crazy, will drink it again at the occasion, just won't buy a bottle.

A very nice rum in the price range. Smooth finish. Great on its own but mixes really well. Banana notes. Has really great flavor.

Je to sladší rum. Velmi dobrý. Moje první zkušenost s touto značkou a určitě nezklamal.

A friend recommended this to me so my hopes where high. Very well balanced rum but not very memorable.

I'm for the sweet ones, so this just isn't me. Far from what I consider to be a sipper so I use it for Dark 'n' Stormy.

This rum is very sweet. However it's smoothness is exceptional. Not quite worth the price point but overall a very good rum.

The rum market is flooded in blended ''premium'' rums, with little to no personality, and nothing to distinguish them from the other ''premium'' blended rums. Sure this has a pleasant flavour, but it just doenst do anything out of the ordinary.

Fantastic nose on this one, and a wonderful smooth, oaky flavour to follow. You really can't go wrong with this. Easily better than pretty much everything else in it's price bracket in Western Canada (~$45).
