Brugal 1888

Site:1888 is first matured in hand-picked ex bourbon American oak casks, then in European oak, first-fill sherry casks.

This blend of two worlds gives 1888 a complex yet smooth flavour profile.

Drink this at room temp! Great sipping rum.

Tasted this one in duty free on a flight.
The smell and taste are very well. The smell is a little bit sweeter than the taste. I expected mor sweetness. The bitterness is not dominant, it's a good balanced rum.

Smell: caramel, fruits, raisins, some vanilla
Taste: caramel, burned suggar, dry fruits, cognack, spice, coffee
Aftertaste: fruity, green apple (like Appleton)

Sweetness: 1.5/5
Fruit: 3.5/5
Spice: 2/5
Mildness: 3.5/5

I really like this rum. We toured the factory in the Dominican a while back and was impressed with what we saw. The taste was great, the after taste was as good or better than most any rum we have had,. When I can find this rum, I always pick up a bottle or two

Wonderfully oaky flavor. A bit of a bite straight, but still pleasant. Very fine mixed, but no need to waste it in that fashion.

One of my favorites from the Dominicanand a great value. I only drink aged rum and this is always stocked in my bar. Drink it neat or over a big ice cube.

Another enjoyable rum, somewhat complex. Smooth with nice flavor.

I would like this more except that I am more into smoother and sweeter rums which is not everyone's preference. If you want a good sipper on the dryer side, you will have it higher up than I do.

In this price range there are better ones. It has a little alcohol flavour, not so smooth...

Desde luego está muy bueno tiene un toque complejo tanto en nariz como en boca.... que vamos y si te poner a buscar encuentras casi todos los sabores, de todas maneras es un ron serio sin notas dulces, de los que en un principio dudas pero la persistencia y el equilibrio es impresionante para nada alcohólico ni desagradable...el haber pasado por varias barricas de añejamiento deja huella, no es barato 38'50€ y eso que fue en una oferta que compramos varios......y como compré más de una, de cuando en cuando tomo un chupito y comparo ......muchos salen perdiendo .., lo tomo solo y si lo quiero frío...siempre tengo un vaso en el congelador, otra forma es tirar el dinero.

dobrý nasládlý a vyvážený rum na běžné pití, hezká vůně
