1888 Doblemente Añejado

This has bias on a review as was sipped on the day of engagement in Dominican Republic so maybe tasted through happy sunglasses. I had a sample of this on the rocks . sultanas, dates and honey, with a touch of gentle smoke. Buttery and sweet with butterscotch, .

Smooth, not as sweet as others have described and goes great with a big rock!

Decent when drank cold, but as mentioned in many reviews really comes alive when warmed in the hand. Wonderfully smooth very easy to drink, simple pallet but with discerning flavours of sherry and oak, very pleasant rum to sip. The more you sip the better it gets.

Very good and smooth, best drank neat

Nice dry rum, very drinkable and mild. Lot of vanilla and spices in the nose. Softly bittering in the end

I was a bit skeptical about buying this rum, glad that I did. Excellent Spanish-style rum. The Sherry cask enhances this spirit and adds some sweet notes to the rum that otherwise might be too woody and plain. My favorite Spanish-style rum so far.

"Whisky Live 2023, quick tasting session! RON's not my thing, but this is really nice on sherry and without too much sugar. Plus a great welcome at the stand. To sum up, my tasting notes: On the nose: Caramel, Sherry, Vanilla In the mouth: Sherry, Orange zest, Spicy Finish: Vanilla, Sweet".

Very nice dominican Rum

The good thing about this rum is that it has not been excessively sugared, like many other rums from this category. However, it is not particularly praiseworthy at first sight because of the alcoholic note, but if you give it a little time, you get a wonderfully woody sherry nose. In addition, caramel and some fruit. In the mouth then even the dark flavors dominate, which makes this rum something special.

This is a rum that can be rated incorrectly because it is unique in its own way. Initially I rated this rum very low until I found out that it needs to rest for a long while and not only rest standing still. You need to hand warm it and around 25 degrees C. the rum really opens up. The sherry cask and oak is very obvious from nose to finish. The rum was first released in 2011 and its a rum in the cheap end. Price to quality is very good.

The nose is alcoholic and sweet with notes of molasses, tobacco, some barrel, leather and cocoa. On the first sip you feel the sweetness(molasses/bourbon) then it turns and becomes dry with notes of cork/wood, then spice and some leather/leather. Lacks a bit in depth and complexity but is a pleasure to sip. In the empty glass leather, sherry, roasted. Outstanding value for money.

Quite nice despite the low ABV, a lot of taste. I like the Sherry tones

Easy to enjoy rum. Not complex, rather round. Very good for beginners.

Actually deliciously dry. Way more burn than the 40% should be. Not my thing but not bad.

8,3:The nose very woody, but a sense of balance is immediately apparent. This woodiness is tinged with caramel and molasses, simple and classic aromas that are not disturbed by a sensation of sweetness or alcohol. The latter is well-integrated, accompanied by a slight solvent aspect that gives an impression of concentration and impresses the aromas well.The nose opens with rounder notes of coconut, the woodiness melting into milk jam perfumed with orange peel and sweet spices (cinnamon). Aeration brings floral notes and then it's the nuts that stand out this time. It's a rather pleasant, well-balanced, mellow but not sweet. Coconut now becomes a constant...Very promising! 7:On the palate, the texture is light, the attack marked above all by a very toasty woodiness that quickly takes hold of the taste buds. The entry is straightforward with the wood leading the way, soon supported by a spices-pepper. Once this rather lively phase is over, the character quickly becomes light and even a little watery. The wood and pepper continue to swarm across the tongue, sprinkling it with smoky notes of molasses and caramel. 7:On the finish, it's the smokiness of very strongly toasted wood that remains, with hints of vanilla. It is quite short. Well, quite a dissapointment later on....
