Angostura 1919 8-Year rum

Angostura 1919 8-Year

Trinidad and Tobago | Aged | 40% ABV

Angostura 1919 rum is produced in Trinidad by blending a combination of light and heavy molasses distilled rums. These rums spend at least 8 years aging in American oak bourbon barrels.

The name Angostura "1919" refers to the event in 1932 when Angostura's distillery was destroyed by fire. Miraculously, a handful of barrels filled with rum from 1919 survived and were purchased by J.B. Fernandes - the master blender of Fernandes Distillers.

A 0,7 bottle looks like 1,0. Strong taste of alcohol.

This rum has such an oaky taste that the first time I tried it my description was "it tastes like you are licking the deck of an pirate ship" and I meant that in a good way. I still love to sip this rum but I buy it less since it's price went up by about $5.

Good solid rum with lots of vanilla. I prefer this one on the rocks with limes or with coconut water.

The bottle that this rum comes in is nice. It is typically to one you would expext to see on an old time rum ship. Short and squat.

The rum will grow on you, it is not a sweet rum. If you like your dry this is for you, it has an oak and vanilla aftwr taste rhat lingers for a while.

Mixed with coke the vanilla works well a bit like a subtle vanilla alcoholic coke.

Not a sipper for me as I like my rum sweet. It is smooth and the after burn is not bad either for a rum of this price.

Worth owning and one you would not mind mixing with coke.

imho this is a far more complex rum than the 1824, which is a lot sweeter. Excellent sipper.

I have quite a few friends from the islands of Trinidad and Tobago. They introduced me to this rum. It has good color and a level of smoothness, but it could have a better finish
