Introducing the Silver Seal 2002 Demerara Diamond 15-year-old rum, bottled in 2018 as part of the esteemed "Rum is Nature 2018" series. With an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 51.9% and meticulously crafted at the renowned Diamond Distillery in Guyana, this expression is a true gem for rum enthusiasts. Limited to just 220 bottles, this exquisite rum embodies the rich heritage and exceptional quality associated with the Silver Seal brand.
On the nose, this rum greets you with a harmonious blend of spicy and burnt notes, typical of a Diamond rum. Nutmeg, black pepper, and cocoa powder are beautifully interwoven with old, dry vanilla and a subtle hint of anise. There's also a trace of dried prunes and a woody undertone lurking behind the spice.
The palate is equally captivating, commencing with a robust spicy and burnt-roasty sensation. This transitions into a delightful mix of sweet and salty licorice, with sharp anise flavors reminiscent of Ouzo. This complexity makes it a stellar representative of the Demerara style, often compared to the 1997 Port Mourant.
The finish is long and lingering, dominated by notes of anise that make for a memorable aftertaste.
Overall, the Silver Seal 2002 Demerara Diamond 15yo offers an intricate and layered flavor profile, harmoniously blending tropical notes with spicy warmth, hints of burnt sugar, and roasted elements. This rum stands out due to its complexity and rarity, making it a highly valued addition to any collection.
