First 151! And wow punched me in the face tasting neat. The nose was strong coffee and cocoa, almost like a well done cafe mocha. Some spiciness behind that, and roasted spices at that. Taste was a slap in the face but immediate dark smoke fading into a maple thing. Finish surprisingly short for being such a strong dram, but pleasant. Threw this into Jelani Johnson's Old Fashioned recipe and wow! The Jamaican component in this merges with the teaspoon of S&C to really punch this up. Now have to try the original 151 Demerara River for sure.

Huge maple syrup nose on this one. Creme brulee and caramel. Pours dark amber. Moutfeel is super sharp booze, more caramel. Long finish that doesn't really get better. I don't love this blend. Sample thanks to xamsx.

There is a toffee aroma to this one. The 151 makes sipping a challenge, and mixed with Coke was just okay. I’m staying neutral with this one until I have a chance to try it in a tiki drink, where I suspect it will shine.

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.
