Angostura 1919 8-Year

VI
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.

A lot like vizcaya however it's more oaky and burns more. Very simple rum but makes a solid rum and coke.

Vanilla is predominant in the aroma and taste, but the wood of the barrels can also be felt. Not too alcoholic, rather mild. Finish rather short and still dominated by vanilla. It is a little lacking in depth. Nevertheless, this taste can be enjoyed.

Nose: smoky, oaky, spicy, fruity, pleasant, with a hint of vanilla.
Palate: warm, some slight sharpness, rather a fine and thin spirit, some scent of wood maybe, not voluminous, not long lasting. But pretty sweet taste. Pleasant.

A little vanilla, pine resin, and bananas but not strongly flavored overall. Smooth with a little alcohol bite and not much finish. I think it would be good in a cocktail where other flavors can shine.

Had this rum with a nice Casdagli cigar. Sweet, easy on the throat, very fine rum! Will get a bottle as soon as I go shop for rum

A very notable smooth aged rum , balanced , not too sweet , not too rough. It would be 7/10 if the angostura 7 wasn't 10 euros cheeper

Tasted at Laka Lono on 3/7/19. Very pronounced aroma of cotton candy and honey. Smooth palate yet burns the gut. Residual mild honey sweetness to the flavor. I find the Angostura rums to have a harsh afterburn.

Flavor and texture is thin. Not much going on in the nose. Flavor is smoke with hints of honey/vanilla/chocolate.

Just an average rum to hand out on get togethers with the drinking buddies

Forgetable rum. Cocoa, vanilla, raw burn. You can find many similar.

i get a lot of vanilla and some cigar notes. Decent mixer, however a little on the sweet side.
