Angostura 7-Year

Not a bad dark rum, pretty good for the price. Better than Havanna Club 7 years, smoother and more flavour.

Good standard rum. Excellent sipper and a good mixer.

Angostura 7-years, produced in Trinidad & Tobago has matured in bourbon barrels. It has a rich color, very appealing. It had nothing special in the nose; it's quite soft, there is some honey and the spices are well balanced. Due to the ageing in bourbon barrels, the taste starts with a round, sweet taste and afterwards a little bitterness takes over. Its flavor combination is almost like a well-balanced tiramisu. This rum is different than average rums, but it's tasty. The bitterness, like dark chocolate or very dark caramel, is existing quite long in the aftertase. Concluding, very average in the nose but appealing in the taste.

After giving the Angostura 5-year a "7" I feel a "7" is applicable to the Angostura 7-year rum. However consider it more of a 7 for the 5-year and a little over a 7.5 for the 7-year. It's just a tad bit better.

It has a slightly darker amber color as compared to its younger sibling and has a more appealing aroma. Its flavor has that oak tones from the barrels in which it was aged. However the extra aging has caused it to cross over the line, albeit barely, into sipping territory. Definitely smoother with the vanilla and caramel tones as well as butteriness element. There some spiciness to it as well. Doesn't have as much of a burn as its younger sibling.

A very versatile rum enjoyable in mixed drinks, colas, on the rock, and even straight up.

Perfectly aromatic vanilla notes. A fine amber mixer, but in British Columbia overpriced.

Loved it! Great dry sipping rum, complex flavors. Preferred it over several other higher end rums which tend to be too sweet.

So far, it is my favorite of the Angostura House (and I have tried the 1919 and the 1824). Dry and mellow burn. Dark chocolate notes.

Prima donkere rum. 7 jaar gerijpt. Niet te duur en ook puur zeker goed te doen. Niet te zoet en lekker tabak smaakje.

I liked it. With some ice it is really good. Good price vs. taste.

Vanilla on the nose, taste of caramel, spice, slight oak and tobacco ending, all very pleasant, balanced and gentle. Te certain extend it reminds me of Portorican Don Q Anejo and as if married with some Panama (for the tobacco component). The burn is almost unnoticeable compared to the 5y old sibling. Good value for the money.
