Brugal XV Ron Reserva

"Mostly just honey," as one member put it, with a little floral perfume and some cloying maltiness in the finish. This Dominican column-still rum runs sweet and woody, with caramel and vanilla up front before the oak spice takes over. Creamy and syrupy in the mouth, easy to drink, but several tasters called it short and a bit one-note. A gentle, dessert-leaning sipper.

The community says
  • Creamy, syrupy texture
  • But: Contains added sugar
  • But: A bit one-dimensional

Surprise not unpleasant. I expected something very sweet and without depth. It's not crazy but it's on a woody tone with a controlled sweetness.

5.8/10

5,8:On the nose, the first impression we get light with fruity and coffee notes, sea salt, fudge, sweet sherry, milk chocolate, apricot, sultana raisins, orange peel, a touch of banana, almond and honey. The wood is toasted and spicy, as there is also some toasted coconut... 6:On the palate, the attack is dry, not sweet, also creamy. The taste starts with gentle waves of bitter-sweet honey, vanilla bean, the sherry is there, some salted caramel, chocolate, pleasant oak, toasted, also coconut, there is some cinnamon, candied ginger, clove, and orange peel. 5,7:The finish is soft and woody, dry, coconut still present, with wood spice, a briny note..

7.0/10

Ce qui impressionne le plus est l’onctuosité. Très crémeux et sirupeux en bouche. Très doux. Profil typique Dominicain soit doux, sucré et accessible. Rhum pâtissier, accessible et facile à boire. Est-ce super complexe ? Non. Est-ce agréable à boire quand on veut quelque chose de simple ? Oui
