Oily and spirit-forward, with wood, plum and prunes over a faint smoke and a peppery, almost numbing bite that some found distracting. At nearly 60% the alcohol pushes hard, and a couple of members thought it drank young for a 16-year Diamond pot still. The finish runs long and oily, ending on vanilla ice cream. One taster called it the pick of a three-rum lineup.

How does Diamond Kill Devil Guyana 2003 taste?
Summarized by AI from 25 community reviews.
Oily, peppery Diamond pot still with real heat Most enjoyed it — long, oily and spice-driven — but the heat and a slightly young, fusel-oil edge kept a few from fully warming to it.

Total rip-off when it comes to sippers. Very young, tastes of fusel oil, like an unaged whiskey. Very straw color, but in fact it's almost like it's not aged at all. A taste like this I expect from expressions less than 3 years old. For a 16-year-old rum, even if it is continental (no specificity in that respect), the quality for the price is just inexcusable. Shameful cash grab from Hunter Laing. Makes a very pleasant daiquiri all the same, but holy shit, you can find rums for daiquiris much cheaper than this. To be avoided.
Review by Alan Bertoli
Tasted in sample. I liked it but was not thrilled with it. On the nose the aroma is very fresh, lemon and mint. This is also the case on the palate and the alcohol boost comes through in both cases. Medium-length finish with slight hint of pepper.
Review by Martin Ekrt
Not much can be written about the aroma. Nicely but vaguely fruity with technical tones. The taste follows a similar spirit. Pleasant fruitiness, vanilla and among the technical elements probably pencil lead. In the finish a pronounced vanilla ice cream.
Review by Cédric Meyers
Very long on the palate. I didn't really like it because it had an anaesthetic quality in the mouth which disturbed me a little.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
2003 (16 years): spicy to even full-bodied! Driven by clove, raisins and brown sugar. Nice length, it's my favorite of the trio.
