Product details
1888 Aged Rum by Brugal is a premium Caribbean expression that showcases the heritage and craftsmanship of the renowned Dominican producer Brugal. Named after the year the company was founded, this distinguished release is crafted through a unique double-aging process that develops remarkable depth, complexity, and refinement. Matured first in American oak barrels and then finished in European oak casks that previously held sherry, 1888 Aged Rum beautifully combines rich oak character with layers of fruit, spice, and sweetness. The result is an elegant and sophisticated expression designed for slow appreciation, highlighting the balance and artistry that have defined Brugal for generations.
On the palate, notes of dried fig, caramel, honey, vanilla, cocoa, and toasted oak unfold in harmonious layers, complemented by hints of raisin, cinnamon, and dark fruit. The texture is smooth and refined, leading to a long, warming finish with lingering notes of sweet spice and rich oak. This versatile expression pairs beautifully with grilled steak, roasted pork, aged cheeses, dark chocolate desserts, pecan pie, and dried fruit platters. Its rich and layered character also complements special occasions and elevated dining experiences.
