Best overall drinking experience of all of the finer Angostura Rums. Great Trinidad rum!
As a whisky lover, I was disappointed by this well praised rum. Not even close to the depth and complexity of many comparably priced malts and some brandy. Cane sugar, raisins, light smokiness - which resembles a burnt plastic in this case. Maybe there's more in the palate, but the latter simply doesn't make me want to investigate. Weak aftertaste, but prolonged and acceptably pleasant. Fine, I'm giving it 3/5 instead of 2.5 overall.
THE BEST I'VE TASTED.....VERY GOOD
A very balanced smoke from the wood with a sharp but light sweetness. Well worth the money for a sippier.
A decent rum, but surely not the best one. It's too exotic and too different from what is called the average taste. It has a lot of burnt wood and too little of sweetness in the taste. It's far from the classical rum taste, therefore I think it will not have a great success. I do not mean it is bad. Not at all. In fact it's very good and me personally I liked it. It's only a kind of DIFFERENT RUM. Not for the average taste. As said it smells and tastes like the burnt wood. I have also discovered a smell that reminds me of tobacco. It contains only 17 mg. of sugar per liter. Not too dry at all, but not very sweet either. A kind of "half-sweet" rum. For me is it actually OK, but many people prefer the sweeter rums. I have also noticed a little of alcohol tones in the smell. Not very disturbing, but this is not very good for a rum of such age and such price. But it's not too sharp and is rather disappearing. In some words - very, very special rum. Doubtlessly worth of tasting. Worth of its price 65 euro? Hmmm, maybe it's a little overpriced. But actually not a bad price for such exotic and rare liquor. But if you ask me if I'll buy another bottle of this rum, I will answer that I am not sure about this. There are a lot of other good rums for this price and below. But it was pleasant and interesting experience to try this one.
