Brugal 1888

At $50 a bottle, their are many other rums I would spend the money on. Having said that, the 1888 is a drier rum but offers complex flavors with just a slight burn.
Meant to be enjoyed neat as the price tag is steep to mix. That is what the $5-$15 rums are for aged for a year or so.

Little sweet and smooth very enjoyable and flavoured

I love all Brugal rums and this one is no exception. However I think that many of their lower range rums easily compete with this one.

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.

Sugar: 3 GPL

Good rum for sipping

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.
