Angostura 1919 8-Year

this on a hot summers day over ice was an OK drink . I would not go out of my way for it but happy to drink it on the rocks

I was given 2 bottles of this years ago by a Trini friend and fell in love with the taste. Not the smoothest you can buy but many many people love this rum great served neat or the best I ever had mixed when I was at the Hilton Fete in Trinidad for my first Carnival. When I do a rum tasting with friends I give a glass of pepsi on the side to wash the flavours, with 1919 you can taste the cinnamon and ginger only after you take a sip of pepsi. This is my favourite back up rum of choice and always have a few bottles on hand.

A nice golden coloured rum with a little sweetness and a faint oaky bitterness to the aftertaste. Has some fruity tones and is easy to drink neat on ice. Great delicate nose.

Cherchant des rhum des vieux et rond j'ai été un peu déçu.

Nice drop sweet with a bit of vanilla but not sickly, bit of molasses and caramel. Didnt find it outstanding but still quite good. Excellent presentation.

In der Nase frisch, Zitrone bzw. Orange. Mild, weich, leicht, fruchtig. Etwas Vanille. Nicht zu süß. Etwas Schärfe, aber sehr angenehm. Im Abgang etwas Bitterschokolade, Basilikum (?).

Hyvän makuinen, mutta terävä alkoholin potku pilaa elämyksen.

Experimente los sabores en capas ricos y suntuosos de este ron con notas sutiles de vainilla, un toque dulce de miel y un excepcional final suave. Se disfruta mejor solo a temperatura ambiente acompañado por un vaso alto de agua con gas. Beba el agua primero, para apreciar los complejos sabores de este ron

I love a good aroma, this blend has some of the best. The scent however betrays a bitter taste. Its not for me.

It is really expensive and it has a heavy taste, but I guess that's what the Blend is for. I prefer sweeter
rums like Barcelo to this, but can't deny that Angostura 1919 is one real MANLY drink.
