The Mezan 2003 Guyana rum is a unique and complex spirit with a rich history. Distilled from local molasses using a "house" yeast strain, this rum hails from the now-closed Versailles distillery, known for its old wooden "pot still." The aging process in ex-bourbon oak barrels adds a depth of flavor that is truly remarkable.
On the nose, this rum unveils a variety of aromas, including notes of varnish often found in Jamaican rums, accompanied by a light charred scent. More indulgent aromas such as licorice, prune, and subtle hints of almond and banana further enhance the experience.
The taste profile differs from the nose, presenting a simpler yet equally intriguing flavor. The primary taste is of charred notes, complemented by a slight oiliness and light floral undertones.
The finish is of medium length, dominated by the charred flavor once again, with a hint of green prune making a reappearance. This rum is a true testament to the art of rum-making and is sure to delight any rum connoisseur.

Opinions on Mezan 2003 Guyana rum are mixed. Some reviewers find it to have a diluted continental profile with a balance of fruity freshness and bitter spices but feel there are better options available. Others find it pleasantly fruity with a straightforward initial taste followed by fruity notes and good length in the mouth. However, some reviewers express disappointment, expecting more complexity given the vintage, while others appreciate its citrusy aroma and flavors of cinnamon and tobacco.
