Intro/Heritage:
Aged like a whisky, sipped like a rum, Brugal 1888 Doblemente Añejo brings double-cask elegance to the world of premium rum. Crafted in the Dominican Republic and aged first in ex-bourbon casks, then in first-fill oloroso sherry butts, this bottle tells a story of time, patience, and master blending. Deep, warm, and complex, it’s a rum that drinks like a revelation, even without the box.

Tasting Profile:
Nose: Rich and aromatic. Brown sugar, vanilla pod, dried figs, and orange zest swirl with hints of cinnamon, cocoa, and toasted oak.
Palate: Smooth and layered. Toffee, raisin, baking spice, and dark chocolate unfold over a creamy texture with sherry sweetness and oaky depth.
Finish: Long and balanced. Molasses, nutmeg, and spiced orange taper into soft oak tannin and lingering warmth.

Production Details:
Aged up to 14 years using Brugal’s signature double maturation process: first in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, then in European sherry-seasoned barrels. Distilled and matured entirely in the Dominican Republic, and bottled at 40% ABV.

Expert Notes:
Brugal 1888 is one of the few rums to apply a sherry cask finish with true finesse. It’s refined without being overly sweet, and its balance of spice, fruit, and oak makes it a standout in the premium rum category.
