Drinks more like a bourbon or whiskey than a rum, which caught me off guard.
Smells strongly of demerara, milk chocolate, white chocolate, vanilla.
Very smooth, sugary flavor carries through. Earthy and a bit peaty on the finish with notes of bitter dark chocolate.
Good mixer, bit rough to drink neat.
It's hard to drink it neat. A flavourful rum best served mixed with cola or ginger ale.
Nothing special at all. Standard column still blandness. Some cool oak character but nothing memorable. Too much alcohol burn and harshness to sip on.
I bought this bottle to complete a cocktail recipe I've been working on:
The Angostura Sour
0.5 oz Egg White or Aquafaba
1 oz Lemon Juice
0.75 oz Rich Demerara Simple Syrup
1.5 oz Amaro di Angostura
1 oz Angostura 5yr Rum
2 Dashes Angostura Bitters
Reverse dry shake (make sure to double strain)
Serve in chilled sour glass or other medium-volume stemware
It is a thoroughly typical aged rum. Mediocre aroma, no interesting flavor notes, not very smooth.
Average. Not worth the price to be honest. Big standard rum in my opinion.
It has that nice buttery almost floral, sweet vanilla-ed nose. It’s pretty distinctive.
"It is sweet with a nice hit of vanilla ice cream and some slightly spicy dark chocolate, almost cocoa like notes."

($30CAD) I wanted to have a mixing option for some cocktails and also wanted to try this neat as the Angostura 7 year was delicious.
On its own, the 5 year smells strongly of alcohol but a bit fruity as well. Lots of that Angostura aroma too, which is slowly becoming one of my favourites.
Taste is definitely a bit sharper than the 7 but also a bit lighter with some tropical fruit and citrus notes dominating the tongue. It’s light and crisp with an ok finish.
I wish I had some English Harbour 5 year to compare with. Both are around the same price and in my opinion, would share the same purpose. Will get by as a neat sipper, and you won’t be afraid to throw it in a cocktail too.
Now it’s time to go up in age through the Angostura options.
