Not really a bigger hitter for those that don't like nutty flavours, it does hit strongly with raisin and nutmeg though. Its £90 retail price does seem high for what could be a specific audience. Between the two of us, one who can enjoy nuts thought it ranked well, maybe 7; for the one that didn't marked it as a 4.

Rating: 6/10

Smell - nutty, raisins, vanilla
Taste - nutmeg, raisins
After Taste - short/medium in length, watered down raisin flavour

This was the first "top notch" rum that I experienced several years ago. It's what led me to start appreciating rum over other spirits.

Way too sweet and cloying to be any good. Not an authentic rum by any measure, but a manufactured, sweet product to appeal to those with a sweet tooth. Disapointing.

The Angostura No. 1 is a blend of 10-year-old rums, which again stored together for 6 years in first fill bourbon barrels. It was bottled with 40% alcohol. The rum comes in the old classic Angostura bottle, like the old 1824. The purple layout is a matter of taste, but doesn't work for me. Destroys the good look. The rum is very limited and in Germany only 160 bottles are offered.

The Angostura is mild and balanced compared to the 1787. On the nose there are classic rum notes of caramel, vanilla and wood spice. On the palate, the sweetness is present first. Plums, raisins and balanced wood notes combine in an excellent composition. A little tobacco and spice are also noticeable. All very balanced and mild. One of the mildest rums I've tasted. The finish is sweet again and the rum sounds pleasant.

The Angostura No 1. is very good to drink. The alcohol is not significant. Balanced and mild, he probably makes everyone happy. Unfortunately, it's also a bit boring. There is a certain extra missing. This is particularly noticeable because of the high price and the complexity of the other cheaper Angosturas. For a 100Euro Rum there is not enough.

Der Angostura No. 1 ist ein Blend aus 10 Jahre alten Rums welche nochmals gemeinsam für 6 Jahre in first fill Bourbon Fässern lagern durften. Er wurde mit 40% Alkohol abgefüllt. Der Rum kommt in der alten klassischen Angostura Flasche, in dem auch mein alter 1824 abgefüllt war. Das lila Layout ist Geschmackssache, sagt mir aber nicht sehr zu. Zerstört irgendwie die gute Optik. Der Rum ist stark limitiert und in Deutschland werden nur 160 Flaschen angeboten.

Der Angostura ist im Vergleich mit dem 1787 mild und ausgewogen. In der Nase finden sich klassische Rum Noten von Karamel, Vanille und Holzwürze. Am Gaumen ist zuerst die Süße präsent. Pflaumen, Rosinen und ausgewogene Holznoten verbinden sich in einer guten Komposition. Auch ein wenig Tabak ist wahrnehmbar. Alles sehr ausgewogen und mild. Einer der mildesten Rums die ich gekostet habe. Der Abgang ist wieder süß und der Rum klingt sich angenehm aus.

Der Angostura No 1. ist gut zu trinken. Der Alkohol ist gar nicht nennenswert. Ausgewogen und mild macht er es wahrscheinlich jedem recht. Leider ist er auch etwas langweilig. Es fehlt das gewisse Extra. Das fällt vor allem auf Grund des hohen Preises und der Vielschichtigkeit der anderen günstigere Angosturas auf. Für einen 100Euro Rum kommt dann doch einfach etwas zu wenig.

Sattes, klares Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase sehr dezent, fein gesägtes Eichen Holz mit Kakao bepudert und in ein mit Karamell bestrichenes Moos Bett gelegt.
Im Gaumen sehr elegant und geschmeidig. Runde Aromen rollen relaxt über die Zunge, weiches Karamell umschmeichelt Schokolade, Vanillesauce fliest über ein rau gehobeltes Eichenbrett.
Im Abgang wunderbar lang, Milchschokolade und Vanillepudding verleiten Dich zu einem weiteren Schluck.
Ein sehr süffiger Rum, leider etwas wenig Tiefgang. Braucht eine sehr lange Zeit zum atmen. -8

Rich, clear amber in the glass.
In the nose very subtle, finely sawn oak wood powdered with cocoa and placed in a bed of moss coated with caramel.
Very elegant and smooth on the palate. Round aromas roll relaxedly over the tongue, soft caramel caresses chocolate, vanilla sauce tiles over a rough planed oak board.
The finish is wonderfully long, milk chocolate and vanilla pudding tempt you to take another sip.
A very drinkable rum, unfortunately a little bit too shallow. Takes a very long time to breathe. -8

Well... Limited edition rum. Didn't know what to expect from limited edition rum. It's quite good, but really won't search for another bottle.

I got to try this at the famous Rum Bar in the beautiful Whitsundays Isles in North Queensland. A 16 year-old rum apparently finished in cognac barrels for the last 6 years.
Definitely a brandy taste to it with raisins , slightly nutty and with pastry notes.. Dry and not too sweet. I enjoyed the Batch 1 last year and this was another nice sipper. I have the 1787 at home which im really looking forward to.
