Skipper Dark Rum Guyana is a traditional Guyanian dark rum, distinguished by its unique 'Demerara' quality stamp. This exquisite rum is distilled from sugar cane and molasses and meticulously aged in oak casks before blending. It boasts a rich and robust flavor profile teeming with caramel, treacle, vanilla, and toffee notes. With an ABV of 40%, this rum delivers a balanced yet bold experience. It has a pleasant nose with hints of molasses, dark chocolate, and coffee, accompanied by a spicy undertone. On the palate, it reveals an array of flavors such as spicy chocolate, oily texture, and a subtle burn from the alcohol. The medium-long finish transitions from slightly sweet to a more bitter, peppery end, making it an excellent choice for mixing, particularly in creating that authentic navy-style Demerara blend.
