Mezan's Guyana Diamond Distillery 12-Year-Old rum is a masterpiece distilled in 2008 at the renowned Diamond Distillery in Guyana, using a Pot Still and high-quality molasses. This exceptional spirit holds an ABV of 46%, offering a unique and unparalleled taste experience. The rum is initially aged for 3 years in Guyana, then transferred to Europe for an additional 8 years of aging in ex-American bourbon casks.
Indulge in the captivating aroma of this remarkable rum, boasting notes of caramel, pineapple, grappa, anise, and licorice. On the palate, uncover a unique blend of flavors that unfold with every sip, revealing hints of caramel, whiskey, herbal notes, a delicate touch of soap, and a delightful astringency.
This Guyanese rum was bottled in 2020 by the independent English bottler Mezan, without cold filtration and without additives, respecting the brand's philosophy. The balance is immediately found, and the impetuosity of the rum is avoided. It features almond, sweet, and resinous aromas, coconut milk, and very ripe exotic fruits. The more powdery, coppery flavors are melted into the molasses and cane sugar, giving it a unique, gourmet character.
The full-bodied character of the English style, and more particularly of Demerara, is present with powdery and almost mineral notes taking the lead. The aeration develops the greediness, and the rum gains a slightly pastry character. However, some copper notes reaffirm a strong identity.
Mezan's Guyana Diamond Distillery 12-Year-Old rum contains no additives (sugar or coloring) and has not been cold filtered, preserving the true essence of Guyanese distillation and the unique flavors of the Diamond Distillery.
