8.1/10

Found this one in my notes and still remember the positive sip from a while back. The nose is dark and woody and definitely from Guyana. There is some tobacco and polish to it after resting for a while. The palate is kind of heavy, but in a positive way. There is a lot of fruits on the palate especially in the follow up sips. Everything is very well balanced. The finish is medium long and has a fruity, minty and a tad of smoke to it. A rum right down my alley.

S 7.2 out of 10, it's a good rum, though not exceptional.

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.
