About this bottle

The House of Angostura, renowned for its bitters since 1824, also produces and markets a range of rums, which are incorporated into its bitters. These column-distilled rums, aged in Trinidad, vary from light silver expressions to premium sipping varieties. Angostura also supplies bulk rum to other distillers and independent bottlers. The Angostura 7 Year rum is a blend of spirits aged for a minimum of seven years in used American oak bourbon casks.

Hubert Niles 3.0

It comes across as young and flat, with a slight harshness remaining. The aroma is pleasant, even better when diluted. It has vanilla, fruit, and nut notes with a strong freshness. The taste is smooth, but features a brief harshness that fades into... well, nothing. I'm not saying it's not a good sipper. It's primarily a sipper because I can't picture it in mixers, unless you're looking to get wasted. I actually enjoy this one because it's somewhat of an... outsider. It lacks a profound taste, but it still possesses its own distinct personality. So, if you're exploring the world of rum, don't hesitate to try it. But if you're a rum purist, keep away.

I tried it neat. It's an enjoyable beverage, especially considering its price point. For a genuine rum experience, consider purchasing a slightly pricier bottle.

Lina Russo 3.0

A good rum for beginners. It has hints of vanilla and oak. Much stronger than other rums, with a burning sensation on the tongue and in the mouth.

Maude Riley 3.0

Very basic rum, highly alcoholic, too simple for 7 years of aging. I probably won't buy it again.

Sidney Groves

Smooth, but not as sweet as I prefer. Still drinkable. I would purchase it again if required.

Blake Shelby 2.8

Lacks all sweetness, a bit tart, bland with a hint of smokiness
