Tasting Notes

Nose
There is a sweet sense of small grains particularly the malted barley, with a hint of sweet caramel. The balance of the small grains (wheat and barley) with the hint of sweet caramel/vanilla, gives the immediate sensation and question in your mind; is this a great bourbon, or is this a great Scotch? Honestly, smelling it will make you feel like you are in a Scotch Whisky warehouse.

Palate
Initially there is sense of warm spicy sweetness from the rye that you might expect from a great bourbon, but then the combination and soft tones from the wheat and barley give a pleasant calming warmness to the tongue. As it melts in the mouth the essence of orange and grapefruit linger behind the soft velvety feel in the mouth.

Finish
In the throat, the soft caramel/vanilla reappears and trails away with a long soft pleasant finish.

This rum aged 2/5 years, distilled by Demerara Distillers, offers some notes of candied fruits, power and roundness in mouth.

Distillery: the Demerara Distillers' history has started in 1670, when each sugar plantation had its own rum, and a group of producers of sugar cane has decided to create a cooperative for exporting. After years of consolidation and fusion, there is now one distillery only in Diamond on the eastern shore of the Demerara. The distillery produces a "High Easter" rum, very concentrated, in a small still especially provided for that purpose.

The refining by our Cellar Master: the Sherry Oloroso cask harmonizes the notes of rancio with the notes of red and dried fruits. The rancio aromas slowly disappear to develop into red fruits and nice notes of nuts. This rum becomes more silky, with a nice roundness and some natural sweetness.
