The Wild Parrot Hidden Spirits (LMDW) 1999

Well-liked but not without a caveat: this old Port Mourant leans dry and herbal, with anise, licorice and grass over a woody, tannic core. Prunes and tropical fruit soften it, but the finish turns hot and bitter — one taster reckons it was bottled just past its peak. At 23 years and 51.5%, it's a Guyanese pour built for slow, analytical sipping.

Dry, herbal old Port Mourant with a bitter finish Highly rated by fans of dry, aged Demerara, though several flag real bitterness in the finish. A cerebral pour more than an easy one.

Guyana 

Avg Rating 8.4/10 over 1,600 Rums

Guyana is the last home of the wooden still, and the only rum country where the place on the label is almost never the place the rum was made. Its rum, called Demerara after the river, went from 109 distilleries to one, and the estates that closed live on as marks: codes for a recipe, not for a machine. Reading them is the whole skill.

` between two key/value pairs terminates the expression and Hugo fails the whole build with `unexpected "{" in operand`. Put notes here. `headerDeliveryCountry` feeds the aria-label of the destination picker under the express row (commerce/express-destination.js). The strip's visible text is rendered by Hugo itself in rx/price_block.html — nothing else needs seeding. */ -}}
