The Samaroli 1990 Demerara 27yo is a testament to the craftsmanship and commitment of the Samaroli brand. Distilled in 1990 at the renowned Demerara Distillers in Guyana, this exquisite rum was aged for 27 years before being bottled in Scotland in July 2017. With only 318 bottles available, this rum is a true collector's item. It boasts an ABV of 45% and comes in a 700ml bottle. On the visual examination, it presents an inviting mahogany color. The nose is greeted with pungent aromas featuring notes of thyme, juniper, leather, and tobacco. On the palate, it is ample, opulent, and smooth, offering a very enveloping drinking experience devoid of harshness. The finish is persistent, severe, powerful, and mysterious, yet it strikes with great elegance and defined flavors. This rum is produced by distilling a fermented sugar infusion from molasses using small copper pot stills, known as 'a repasso,' because it requires at least two distillations. The rum matures in oak barrels that previously held whisky, absorbing tannins, acquiring a darker color, and refining in Scotland where it is subsequently bottled. This unique cask (#14) was selected for its outstanding character. Enthusiasts appreciate the whisky barrels' influence on Samaroli rums, and this bottle is no exception with its clearly defined whisky and malt notes. Slightly dry and lightly bitter with a touch of vanilla, it caters to serious rum drinkers. It's a nice sipper with dark fruits, vanilla, and brown sugar, though some may find it a bit thin with a short finish. The aroma is dominated by notes of whiskey, nuts, banana, yeast, and vanilla. The palate strikes a balance between sweetness, bitterness, and dryness, with hints of honey, banana, dry characteristics, barrel spice, and a hint of medicinal flavor. The finish features lingering notes of malt, spice, barrel, nuttiness, and a hint of wood and pepper. Overall, the Samaroli 1990 Demerara 27yo is a complex and well-balanced rum with a rich and fruity character, hints of spice and barrel notes, and a lingering finish.
