The Compagnie des Indes 2010 Guyana 8yo is a limited-edition rum with an ABV of 43% and a total of only 755 bottles produced. This exquisite rum is crafted at the renowned Diamond Distillery in Guyana, specifically utilizing the legendary Port Mourant double wooden pot still. Distilled from molasses in 2010 and aged for 8 years, this rum offers a unique flavor profile that is emblematic of traditional English rums.
The aroma of this rum is a delightful mix of vegetal notes, sugarcane, and fermented apple, complemented by hints of banana, ananas, and papaya cooking on hot copper. There's a backdrop of frangipane baking in the oven and the gentle release of vanilla from grilled oak. Over time, the rum reveals a subtle vegetal and slightly medicinal quality, with touches of licorice and aniseed derived from the molasses.
The flavor is round, warm, and rich, with a fruity and resinous note. The vegetal and gourmand profile expands on the palate, followed by a slight warming sensation that releases cocoa and toasted nuts, creating a different kind of richness that coats the tongue. This rum is produced by the only distillery in Guyana, which has integrated legendary stills from now-defunct distilleries. Among these, the unique Port Mourant double wooden pot still was used for this 8-year-old rum. The spirit was reduced to 43% ABV without any further modification or addition, allowing it to embody the purest style of Demerara rums.
The Diamond distillery stands out for bringing together all the traditional artisanal stills of the region. It continues to blend traditional distillation techniques with modern technology to produce its world-renowned rum. This rum features subtle notes of sweet almonds, frangipane, and a floral touch with a hint of toasted bread. Overall, the Compagnie des Indes 2010 Guyana 8yo is a delightful Demerara rum with a true pot-still character, offering an experience that is both easy and indulgent.
