had this rum recently

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.

One of the first aged rums I tasted as a lot of people. I still appreciate it. Of course it is certainly altered (at least with a bit of sugar...) but it does not taste as fake as plenty of other excessively sweetened (and expensive) """ premium""" rums on the market. Sweet but not sickly sweet. Not very complex but quite balanced while still a lot of flavours to enjoy. All in all, a good rum in this price range.

Un des premiers vieux rhum que j'ai goûté, un peu comme tout le monde. Ça reste un rhum industriel avec sa dose -raisonnable- de sucre et surement d'autres choses mais il ne fait pas complètement trafiqué comme beaucoup de ces rhums """premiums""" qui inondent le marché. Le sucre ne couvre pas tous les arômes et il y a encore plein de choses à sentir dedans. Je l'apprécie toujours, c'est un petit rhum très sympa à prix raisonnable, parfait pour découvrir.

Lækker duft, men smagen i starten følger ikke rigtig med :-( Men så sker der noget, smagen bliver bedre og bedre ☺

It had this dental cotton wool taste like rum. Really nice with cola.

A very rum. The aroma is not very strong but it tastes so good! There's some vanilla and some flavours from the barrel.

Not a bad rum, but I prefer sweeter ones.

Angostura 1919 smells like the Carribean with hints of south america. We have vanilla, peach, caramel, banana and very light leather. On the tongue we get classic rum Button then a strange muffy aftertaste kicks in - ruining the experience for me. ..

No real stand out features or flavours just an all round high quality rum. Great straight or maybe with a little bit of ice

The smoothest rum I've tried. Unfortunately it doesn't have a taste too match. Tastes a little odd slightly soapy.

Denne rom har en fin næse af vanilje, noget træ og en let sødme. En duft der tiltaler mig. Jeg kan godt sidde med næsen i glasset længe, og nyde duften.

Smagen er også dejlig, og der finder jeg det samme som i duften. Der kommer dog en lille anderledes smag til sidst som minder mig mest om humle. Det er en lækker rom og rigtig god til prisen.

Desuden er den hamrende flot. Æsken og flasken er gennemført, og det ser meget eksklusivt ud.

Un rhum parfait pour se lancer dans la découverte des rhums vieux. Excellent rapport qualité prix pour ce rhum à la couleur or possédant un nez vanillé très prononcé. En bouche on retrouve la vanille avec de légères pointe d'épices en milieu de bouche.
