Brugal Extra Viejo Dominican Rum

Brugal Extra Viejo Dominican Rum is a premium aged rum from Brugal, one of the Dominican Republic’s most respected and historic distilleries, with a legacy dating back to 1888. Crafted from molasses and distilled in column stills, Extra Viejo represents the brand’s move into more refined, sipping-quality rums while staying true to its smooth Caribbean style.

This rum is aged in a combination of ex-bourbon American oak and European oak casks, allowing it to develop complexity and maturity while maintaining balance and approachability.

In the glass, Brugal Extra Viejo shows a deep amber-brown color. The nose opens with aromas of toasted oak, vanilla, and cocoa, layered with dried fruit and subtle spice. On the palate, it is smooth and full-bodied, delivering flavors of toffee, caramel, roasted nuts, and hints of coffee, balanced by oak and warm spice. The finish is long and elegant, leaving behind a pleasant mix of sweetness and wood influence.

Brugal Extra Viejo is versatile enough to sip neat or on the rocks, where its depth can be fully appreciated, yet it also adds sophistication to cocktails like rum Old Fashioneds, Manhattans, or elevated Cuba Libres. As one of Brugal’s flagship premium offerings, it reflects both the heritage of Dominican rum-making and the distillery’s commitment to quality.

Taste Notes & Food Pairings

Tasting Notes

Brugal Extra Viejo Dominican Rum is a smooth, complex rum that reflects the brand’s signature dry style. The nose opens with aromas of caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, accented by hints of cocoa and light spice. On the palate, it is rich yet balanced, delivering flavors of molasses, dried fruit, roasted nuts, and gentle cinnamon layered with subtle smoke from oak aging. The texture is silky and approachable, leading into a medium-long finish where oak, vanilla, and warming spice linger in harmony.

Food Pairings

This rum pairs wonderfully with both savory and sweet dishes. As a starter, roasted nuts or cured meats highlight its nutty depth. For the main course, grilled pork chops, jerk chicken, or seafood paella complement its balance of spice and sweetness. Semi-hard cheeses such as aged cheddar or Manchego create a savory contrast, while desserts like flan, caramel bread pudding, or spiced chocolate cake echo its warm, toasty finish.

Brugal Rum

Brugal is one of the Dominican Republic’s most historic and respected rum producers, founded in 1888 by Andrés Brugal Montaner. The brand is renowned for its dedication to craftsmanship, family tradition, and innovation in the art of rum-making. Brugal Ron Gran Reserva 1888 is a flagship expression that reflects this heritage, crafted from molasses distilled in column stills and aged using a double maturation process. The rum is first matured in ex-bourbon American oak casks before being finished in hand-selected Spanish sherry casks, creating a distinctive balance of rich sweetness and dry complexity. Brugal emphasizes smoothness, depth, and versatility, producing rums that embody the vibrant spirit of the Dominican Republic while appealing to both connoisseurs and modern rum enthusiasts.
