Angostura 7-Year

Decent rum , even better in a rum old fashioned.
Tried it on it's own and was not the most favored drink but quite enjoyable with some friends.
Would consider it more of a mixer then a sipper

A straightforward, nice expression of Trinidad rum. Compared to Angostura 5 it is a bit more mellow, as would be expected. Aromas of oak, dust, vanillin, tobacco an whole coconut on the nose. It hits the palate with some dried tropical fruit and molasses caramel, while the finish is a bit grassy with some toffee. Also quite long and pleasantly lingering. Nice enough structure with integrated alcohol, but not really interesting as a sipper. Yet it has way more character than a lot of similarly aged, column distilled, molasses based rums out there. Still, I’ll go for the 5 YO for mixing, due to its stronger signature. However you’d be closer to, say, Barbadian expressions with this one and obviously it is better for sipping than it’s younger sibling. A cocktail recipe that calls for Cuban rum would be enlivened using Angostura instead — any of them — so i warmly recommend it for anyone fond of cocktails who also dares deviating slightly from the market leaders’ somewhat bland go-to bottles.

Compared to other 7 year rums I bought with a similar price this was low on my list. It tastes okay, but for me a little bit to expensive for the quality.

A pretty decent column still rum. Not a whole lot of flavor, but quite smooth and drinkable. Good for mixing.

It's not bad, but not quite a flavour profile that I can get into.

If it were cheaper, it would make the list, but it's just a bit much for me above the $37 current on-sale price. It's a $28 bottle to me

Visibly drier than sweet, with a pleasant smell. Better for drinks, with juices or Coca Cola.

It's a strong tastefull rhum.
This one is a bang after a few shots..
Like the rest of my other bottles, I like to drink this in it's pure shape..

Not a sipper. Great with coke. For me just correct. Gently woodish, sharp, didn't found the chocolate and toffee (maybe a little in aroma not that much in taste) for which I was looking for.

($27 CAD) A nice, solid bottle with a twist of cap. At first I didn’t like the fact that it was twist off but it’s actually a really good, non-drip pour so I respect that.
The smell is pleasant with some fruits coming through. Taste was pleasantly surprising considering how cheap this rum was priced. I always have my reservations about pricing but this is just another example of how price doesn’t always equal value.
There is a healthy amount of fire for sure, but then a lot of flavour. The taste of molasses is strong, and with it comes some subtle fruits. Cherry and banana maybe? Then some of the spicier, leathery notes to settle in with the heat.
This is a solid, decently priced rum. Considering the layers of this rum, I’m very impressed and it just goes to show that Angostura knows what they are doing. If you want a more affordable, molasses based rum with layers for you to uncover, this one is for you. Cheers!

This was a perfectly pleasant taste, not so much afterburn, quite smooth on the tongue! Perfect for a Daiquiri, or and old fashioned.
