Angostura 1824 12-Year

This was the first sipping rum I tasted, and still the only rum I always keep in my cabinet. As a whisky lover, I love the hint of smoke. Complex undertones and not too sweet. Simply delicious!

Super rum. Karibischer rum hauch kokos, tropenfrüchte, gewürze.

I always go for the finall net experience and this rum leaves an unimprovable one. Regardless of how, the depth and strength of the flavor(s) achieved by rum are amazing. The vanilla, cinnamon, chocolate, and dry fruit notes are so clear and intense you can almost chew it as you drink it. Excellent as a sipper or with mineral water and lime. It always makes you want to have one more.

In my top category, I can't stop wanting more. Who wants to rob a bank?

I may have received an older bottle as it was a square bottle with a cork top. The more recent bottling is a round bottle. This review refers to the square bottled version which I had:

Beautiful Spanish-style blended rum. Deep and complex with strong notes of vanilla throughout. Truly one of the best rums I've had. Delightful to sip and it is distinctive enough to turn a good cocktail into a cocktail that is memorable. As a tikiphile, I've found it to be amazing as the base of a top-shelf Pupule.

I've heard rumors that the newer bottling in round bottles with a screw top is not necessarily the same - I'll update my rating when I've had the newer bottling.

Like Botucal is the true masterpiece of spanish style Angostura is the masterpiece of English style!!! Incredible rum: complex, smooth, oily!!! With fantastic aftertaste of raisins and dried fruits!!!

Helps you get into the carnival spirit (literally!)

ce rhum et exelent, tres bon gout a esseyer

For this rum I needed some time to really like but now it is on my favorite list

Delicious and good for sipping. Better than the 1919.
