Decadent Drinks LTD Pot-Distilled Blended Guyana Rum

Sip this slowly and neat — it's a 32-year Guyanese blend built around old varnished wood, the classic Enmore/Uitvlugt pencil-shaving note, and dried fruit (plum, fig, apricot) that turns almost salty. Several tasters found the palate drier and more medicinal and herbaceous than the nose, with licorice and a long, woody finish. One reviewer felt the oak crowds out everything else.

The community says
  • Long woody finish
  • Balanced at ABV

How does Decadent Drinks LTD Pot-Distilled Blended Guyana Rum taste?

Summarized by AI from 25 community reviews.

Dry, woody old Guyana with pencil-shaving finish A well-balanced, intense old Guyana blend most tasters enjoyed. Dry, woody and medicinal, with a very long finish — a few felt the oak got a touch too dominant on the palate.

8.5/10

Whisky Live Paris 2025. Un beau nez avec du vieux bois verni et des fruits jaunes. Des fruits secs aussi. Plus un côté amer, épicé et végétal et même un peu floral. Une bouche très marquée par le vieux bois verni qui ne laisse que peu de place aux fruits secs et aux autres arômes. La finale est belle, longue, riche des arômes du nez après que le bois se soit dissipé. Un très beau rhum, sa bouche trop boisée à mon goût lui fait perdre des points.

7.5/10

On the nose, a certain fruitiness. On the palate, at the first sip, quite pleasant with a hint of gunpowder. Ends somewhat more balanced. Needs time in the glass. Quite stable in the finish. Really suits me well.

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.
