The Rum for Whisky lovers.

Introducing Brugal 1888, an innovative twist on traditional rum that speaks to the refined palate of whisky aficionados. Born from the visionary spirit of Don Andres Brugal Montaner in 1888, this rum was crafted to defy conventions and offer something distinctly different.

So, what sets Brugal apart? For starters, their meticulous distillation process strips away the heavy alcohols that leave other rums overly sweet, resulting in a cleaner, drier spirit that’s a joy to sip. Then, they age every drop in casks—yes, the same kind of oak barrels that cradle the world's finest single malts.

Crafted in the sun-soaked Dominican Republic, Brugal 1888 is a double-aged masterpiece. It begins its life in American white oak casks for 5 to 14 years before taking a luxurious turn in first-fill Sherry oak casks. The result? A symphony of flavors where Bourbon and Sherry meet in perfect harmony. Delight in the notes of vanilla, ripe red fruits, and toffee, all elevated by hints of cocoa and natural oak spice.

Whether you’re reinventing your Rum Negroni or simply enjoying it neat, Brugal 1888 invites you to savor a rum experience like no other—one that’s as sophisticated as it is refreshing. Raise your glass to a spirit that challenges expectations and makes every sip a celebration!

Smells like weak rum to me. Opens with anise and molasses, and more wood notes than I think I want. Transitions to cinnamon and spice and finishes out with dark chocolate. I'm going to be a bit contrary to everyone else and say I don't like it. I get that the goal is to elevate rum into a stand alone sipper. There are other rums that pull it off. For me this goes in all the wrong directions and highlights flavors best left in the background

Vanilla and syrup aroma with a hint of bitter toasted coffee. Taste is almost whiskey-like. Oaky, smoky, and mildly bitter with an astringent tannin quality. Not what I'm looking for in a rum but I can see why other people would like it.

Michael

Very whiskey-like; smooth vanilla and oak, just a hint of rum sweetness.

A bit more balanced of a rum. It's sweet but not so much when you consider that it is, indeed, a rum. Spicy and dare I say almost oaky?

Pretty Darn Good!
