"With Brugal 1888, the rum's unique flavors shine through and are not overwhelmed by the sweetness generally associated with rum; it is undoubtedly a world class rum. The light enhances its dark amber hues and bright, clean color. Fascinatingly complex nose, with spiced nuances, hints of chocolate, of roasted coffee, cinnamon and other dried fruits. On the palate, pleasant, smooth and full-bodied. Its finish has nuances of toffee caramel, wood and liquorice. Brugal 1888 leaves a slightly sweet and long-lasting aftertaste, with a sublime taste which denotes perfection." —producer |

"A limited-edition rum, newly launched in August 2011, and finished in previously used Sherry casks. That Sherry finish contributes so much: the bright copper-penny color, the lush aromas of burnt orange and raisin and the smooth, full-bodied texture. Enjoy the elongated flavors of toffee flavor dusted with Mexican-spiced chocolate while you can." —Kara Newman, Wine Enthusiast Magazine |
