Rock & Rhum Diamond Versailles Still MDXC 2004
Sipped slowly at cask strength, this is unmistakably old Guyana — heavy on wood, with glue, leather, coffee and a dusty pencil-lead note that tasters use to spot a Versailles blind. Underneath sits caramel, licorice and dark chocolate, drying out sharply toward a long, faintly metallic finish. Most find the alcohol well integrated for 55.8%. Herbal and bitter more than sweet.
The community says- Classic Versailles wood
- Well-integrated alcohol
- But: Metallic edge

Review by Vincent D
A very woody nose. A hint of sweetness and caramel. A hint of strange soap. Same sensation on the palate. Very warm and woody. A double sensation, heavy and greedy at the same time. Caramel, licorice. Almost like a bourbon (very woody). A bitter finish. Finishes with a hint of spice and light pepper. Leather and earthiness. And good length. This rum could have been crushed by the wood. It's very woody, but greedy and pleasant. Very cool.
Review by Pavel Spacek
If you want to feel the right Damond/Versailles rum, this is the one you should try. (Unfortunately Diamond is not my best rum profile, so just bellow 8/10 rating)
Review by Filip Šikula
Well, this is a beautiful piece of wood lightly soaked in rum. It smells of wood, glue and a hint of what you might call soap. On the palate goes the first intense expression of barrel, wood and leather. It pearls pleasantly in the mouth and the finish is tremendously long. Lovely.
Review by zabo
In contrast to the RX9406 I had in my glass before, this is a typical Guyana representative. The profile is slowly picking me up more and more each time. This one is more on the woody and herbal side. The alcohol is well integrated and I find it very drinkable.
Review by Cédric Meyers
Very round, pleasant both on the nose and in the mouth.
Review by Richard Krupa
The predominance of herbs, and in the taste at first bitterness, which quickly passes and the aftertaste is mild. And the colour!
Review by Johannes
The 2004 vintage is not my favorite. Too much licorice, molasses and herbs.
