How does this rum taste?
Angostura No. 1 Oloroso Sherry Cask Rum, distilled in Trinidad at the T.D.L distillery, is crafted from molasses and aged between 1 year 9 months to 21 years. With an ABV of 40%, it offers an intriguing blend of aromas including toffee, sherry, and cocoa.

Users noted its smooth sherry character but observed it lacked depth and body. While appreciated for its nose and initial flavors, some have perceived it as thin and underwhelming.

I little too much Sherry feeling in my opinion. The nose have scents of toffee, sherry and chocolate. At the palate it’s woody and dry with flavors of oak, toffee, sherry and chocolate. The finish is medium long.
This is the most recent special edition from Angostura. Unfortunately they have changed the bottle design, a bit sad because I really liked the cubic bottle of the 2 first ones. The nose is typical Angostura with raisin, molasses and sherry. The palate follows with toasted toffee, nuts and prunes. Later there is vanilla and oak. The day after the vanilla and oak are very clear in the glass. The finish is medium long with roasted oak and raisin.
Blind tasting on 01.02.2024, 5th rum Nose: very, very restrained, reveals nothing Palate: weak, weaker, weakest; bland and very diluted Of the eight rums tasted, this is the worst and leaves no lasting impression at all. So insignificant that I even forgot to take a photo. Really, it's from Trinidad? The fact that I was completely wrong in my estimation doesn't make the rum any better.
Flach, wenig Geschmack, viel Neutralalkohol, ganz leichte Süße wie bei einem Finish.
