From the acclaimed Kingsbury & Co., this exquisite 1974 Single Cask Demerara rum represents an extraordinary journey through time. Aged for an impressive 44 years, this limited edition release of only 150 bottles captures the essence of the celebrated Port Mourant distillery in Guyana. Bottled in 2018, this rum boasts an ABV of 46% and is presented in a 700ml bottle, embodying the rich heritage and unparalleled craftsmanship of its origin. This vintage rum is known for its rather atypical profile, characterized by intriguing notes of marzipan, wood, and honey that might even evoke comparisons to Rockley rather than the traditional Guyanese style. The aroma is a complex bouquet of caramel, roasted nuances, dried fruit, and spices layered with woody tones. On the palate, one can savor the warm, roasted flavors intertwined with anise, dried fruit, marzipan, and a hint of oily texture. The finish is long and persistent, leaving traces of raisins, licorice, warm spices, wood, and marzipan. Overall, this rum offers a rich and captivating taste experience, making it a true masterpiece for connoisseurs.
This rum is unique because it is a single cask release from the Port Mourant distillery, aged for 44 years, and it has a distinct flavor profile with notes atypical for Guyana rum, resembling almost Rockley.
Only 150 bottles of this special edition rum were produced, making it a highly limited and collectible item.
