S.B.S 1988 Guyana 27yo 51.8% 700ml information

The S.B.S Guyana is an exceptional rum distilled at the Enmore (Versailles) Distillery in Guyana in 1988 and meticulously aged for 27 years. Bottled by independent bottler 1423 World Class Spirits, this limited release gem features a Single Wooden Pot Still and offers a bold 51.8% ABV. With only 180 bottles existing, it is a true rarity.

The rum opens with sweet and baked aromas, including fresh almond, sweet spices, and confit wood. There are also hints of vegetal freshness, such as liquorice, herbs, resin, and a slight camphor note. These aromas evolve over time, with the sweet almond and spices developing into a rich, caramelized melasse.

The palate is long and complex, with the sweet almond and spices joined by woody, coffee, raisin, oily, and roasted nut flavors. The finish is smooth and satisfying, with a well-balanced complexity.

This rum is a true must-try for rum aficionados searching for a remarkable Guyanese rum. It was bottled without cold filtration or reduction, allowing the full flavor and complexity of the rum to shine through. The S.B.S Guyana is a true testament to the quality and craftsmanship of Guyanese rum.

Reviewer's opinion

  • Warm and full nose with ripe, gentle, and balanced aromas. Complex and spicy with notes of wood, burnt sugar, and spices. A smooth finish, though not particularly powerful, it's far from watered down. An archetypal Demerara, easy to drink and enjoy.
  • Intense herbaceousness, roast notes, and slight bitterness from the wood, complemented by subtle tea aromas. Lacks fresh fruit for more balance. Interesting overall, but not a favorite.
  • A great Guyanese rum from S.B.S. with a well-balanced and complex profile. A must-try for rum enthusiasts.
  • Beautiful depth of cask notes. Ideal for those who appreciate the Versailles style.
  • Dark and dried fruits, leather, and woody notes. Harmonious overall. Heavy and oily on the palate with a tar note, followed by dried fruits, cocoa, and coffee aromas. A mild rum compared to other Enmore rums. The dirty note with tar stands out and is appealing.
