Review and Tasting
Sampled on 08/04/2013
Appearance |
Clear, dark coppery amber. |
Aroma |
Sherry is very evident with dark cacao, dried fruit, toffee-apple-like, almost calvados aromas along with Brugal’s signature mocha coffee. |
Taste |
Full-bodied with sweet vanilla, toffee and liquorice balanced by dry cinnamon spiced oak. |
Aftertaste |
Fruity toffee notes continue into the finish with drier oaky tannins. |
