The Renegade 2003 Guyana Port Morant 6yo is a captivating rum crafted in the iconic pot stills of the Port Mourant distillery, renowned for imparting mineral notes of gunflint. This exceptional rum is aged for six years, including a period at the Bruichladdich distillery in Scotland, where it underwent a finishing process in a Ribera del Duero wine cask made from Tempranillo grapes. Bottled at an optimal 46% ABV without cold filtration, this rum is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship of the Renegade brand.
The aroma opens with distinct mineral notes, followed by nuances of oxidized fruits such as apple, leading into a fresh, nutty heart. With aeration, the bouquet evolves to include floral and dry notes, ultimately returning to the quintessential profile of the Port Mourant still with hints of almond, stone fruit, and a gourmet blend of tobacco, vanilla, apple, guava, and banana. The complexity is reminiscent of Worthy Park Jamaican rum.
On the palate, this rum offers a rounded sensation with dry flavors. It begins with sharp spices, followed by oxidized fruits and nuts, before transitioning into an exotic and vegetal character, tinged with almond and olive. The finish is faithful to the palate, featuring exotically oxidized fruit eau-de-vie and a touch of smoky copper.
This extraordinary Guyana rum, initially distilled in the Caribbean, was later curated by Jim McEwan, the head distiller at Bruichladdich Distillery. McEwan meticulously selected individual casks from notable rum distilleries and further matured them in premium oak barrels before bottling at Bruichladdich Distillery, Islay. This limited edition, artisanal, single-vintage rum represents the essence of essential distilleries across the Caribbean and Americas. Bottled naturally and un-chill filtered, it stands as a unique expression of Renegade's innovative approach to rum production.
