Brugal Anejo Rum and a Time & Oak Element



Brugal Anejo Rum is one of my go to rums.  It’s moderately priced, is excellent neat and even better in a cocktail where you want to actually taste the rum.  A 3 to 5 year blend such as this is a perfect experiment for a Time & Oak Element.
12 hours in we get some light oak and funky flavors added.
24 hours later and the rum is very smooth, with no heat and a little less sweet.
48 hours, and the rum tastes very mature, more like an 8 year old rum, lightly sweet, smooth with no burn.



For rums 48 hours seems to be the sweet spot, at 72 hours the element made it fairly funky.  Brugal Anejo Rum is great choice for using your elements.
