The Brugal 1888 2010 Gran Reserva Familiar is a distinguished rum from the Dominican Republic. Distilled in 2010 by the renowned Brugal distillery, this rum is celebrated for its meticulous craftsmanship and superior quality. At 40% ABV and presented in a 700ml bottle, it embodies the rich heritage and dedication of the Brugal brand. Upon opening the bottle, one is immediately greeted by a symphony of nutty aromas, intertwined with hints of coffee, cocoa, chocolate, and vanilla. Allowing the rum to rest in the glass for at least 15 minutes is essential to fully appreciate these complex notes. The palate is treated to a harmonious blend of spicy and vanilla flavors, complemented by subtle floral undertones. The experience is light yet warm, with a dry character that adds to its sophistication. The finish is enduring and warm, leaving a fruity, spicy, nutty, and vegetal aftertaste that lingers pleasantly. While some may find it to be a lighter Spanish-style rum that doesn't fully convince in aroma or taste, this Brugal 1888 variant has garnered praise for its well-balanced, creamy profile. It's a testament to Brugal's ability to create rums that are both complex and approachable.
It's recommended to let the rum rest in the glass for at least 15 minutes to release all the flavors to both the nose and palate.
