The Excellence Rhum 2005 Guyana 11yo 60.1% 700ml is an enchanting bottling from the celebrated Diamond Distillery in Guyana. Carefully curated by Alexandre Beudet for the Excellence Rhum Collection in France, this rum showcases the meticulous craftsmanship and dedication to quality that defines the brand. Distilled in 2005 and aged for 11 years, it was bottled in 2017 at a robust 60.1% ABV, making it a standout in the collection. Limited to just 247 bottles, this rum is a rare gem for enthusiasts and collectors alike. The Excellence Rhum 2005 Guyana 11yo is defined by its complex and multifaceted profile. On the nose, it reveals tropical fruit, a distinctive smoky note, cinnamon, floral hints, and a touch of citrus. The palate mirrors this complexity with flavors of smoky tropical fruit, earthy undertones, floral notes, and a spicy kick. The finish is equally sophisticated, leaving smoky, peppery, cherry, woody, and spicy impressions. The initial alcohol astringency gives way to a medley of raisin and anise, with floral and tropical fruit undertones. The palate opens sweet and floral, transitioning to aniseed and liquorice flavors, accented by wildflower honey. The finish is salty liquorice combined with hints of honeyed fruitcake, creating a lasting impression of depth and richness. While it may not be the preferred choice for those who favor entirely tropically aged Demerara rums, the Excellence Rhum 2005 Guyana 11yo is admired for its rich flavors and well-rounded profiles, standing strong alongside other exceptional offerings in the Excellence Rhum Collection, particularly the Hampden and Foursquare bottlings.
This rum is part of the Excellence Rhum Collection curated by Alexandre Beudet. It is notable for its unadulterated profile, with no added sugar or caramel color, and its complex flavor profile developed over 11 years of aging.
There are only 247 bottles of this exquisite rum, making it a limited edition and highly sought after among collectors and enthusiasts.
This rum is distilled at the renowned Diamond Distillery in Guyana, which is known for its rich heritage and exceptional rum production.
Excellence Rhum 2005 Guyana 11yo is a solid rum with a fascinating flavor profile. While some might find the alcohol presence a bit dominant and the bitterness not to their liking, the intricate layers of smoky, fruity, and spicy notes make it a noteworthy addition to the Excellence Rhum Collection. Its limited edition status and the careful craftsmanship behind its creation make it a valuable bottle for any rum enthusiast.
