REV in brute - the fruitiness recedes somewhat into the background, but the powerful presence comes to the fore a little more strongly. The alcohol is well integrated, the profile is great fun - excellent.

Wow, this is the hammer. Despite its age this is a complex rum and it needs water to release all the flavours as well as remove the sting from the ABV. The nose is molasses, plum and wood from the start and then leather, caramel and herbal notes. Without water the ABV will clean your nose. The palate oily, very complex and balanced with molasses, smoky wood and fruits trailed by spices and light medicinal and herbal notes. Without water it will bite you and with water it really opens up. The finish is long as in very long and complex with molasses, wood and spices. A great rum!

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.
