Bristol Classic Rum 1990 Old Demerara Rum Port Mourant Port Cask Maturation Guyana 32yo 46.7% 700ml is a highly anticipated release by Bristol Spirits. Distilled at Uitvlugt in 1990 from the iconic Port Mourant wooden still, this exceptional rum has undergone a dual maturation process in Refill American oak and ex-Port oak casks. Aged for an impressive 32 years and bottled at 46.7% ABV, this rum has spent a significant portion of its aging process in Guyana, finely maturing to develop its unique character. On the nose, it offers a rich tapestry of aromas including aniseed, dark berries, cherry, oak, and vanilla, further enriched by a liqueur-like richness and hints of orchard fruits, molasses, brown sugar, caramel, and tobacco. The palate reveals a complex balance of flavors, intermingling lush notes of dried fruit, leather, anise, caramel, and peppery spice, complemented by additional layers of dark chocolate, blackcurrant, licorice, and smokiness reminiscent of a peaty Islay whisky. The finish is a captivating blend of spicy and bitter notes with lingering hints of citrus and burnt sugar, providing a sophisticated end to the tasting experience. While this rum offers a complex and vibrant flavor profile that diverges slightly from the traditional Demerara style, it is an intriguing choice for those seeking a more diverse rum experience. Its unique Port cask maturation adds an extra dimension, appealing to seasoned rum enthusiasts and collectors alike.
