Angostura 1824 12-Year

Nice tasty, smoky, and oaky rum. But a little to watering (thin) for me.

Well I'm no expert but this rum is very subtle. Initially a sweet aroma of vanilla and butterscotch, molasses as it warms a bit more. Definite oak taste but not at all over powering and not really discernible on my nose. Maybe a touch of tobacco. Not a rum that you would use as a mixer as the flavours are too subtle. I like it 50/50 with water.

Very good and beutiful rhum! First sip is a little bit harsh and bitter but those are fading background nicely! Not recomended for a beginner!

I tried with smokes and even mild cheese and taste was much smoother!

I was a fair bit disappointed with the 1919 line and was a little hesitant to pick this up but everyone(/thing) deserves a second chance.

Nose: This had me worried. The 1919 has some stale/chemical smell to it which really put me off and this one has a hint of the same. I had to check with the 1919 that I didn't pick a class with dish-washing powder still on it. After leaving my glass to breath for a bit the 1824 seemed to get a bit better.

Feel: Sharper notes at the start rather than lingering after-taste. . Medium burn.

Taste: Lots of wood, a little citrus and vanilla and caramel. Standard flavours really. Solid, but nothing stood out as bring particularly different.

Presentation: I don't really like short bottles that much (would rather the shelf space) but this one is OK I guess. It came in a box and I normally enjoy the cards that come inside giving insight to the production but this had nothing in it but the bottle.

L'ho bevuto in situazioni varie ma è sempre stato piacevole

Nice drinking rum. One of my favorite angostura rum's

I finally found this rum locally and have been very impressed with it. I have enjoyed the 1919 but this is multiple levels above it

First pour seems very heavy with oak, hoping that will be toned down as the bottle progresses. very much reminds me of a peppery oak reminding me of many bourbons.

Molto buono, facile da bere, un mix molto complesso ma un po troppo legnoso sul finale

Paid $59.99 +tx in NYC. Very nice color and pleasant aroma. Surprisingly lighter finish than I expected, very smooth and enjoyable.
