The Colours of Rum 2003 Diamond Guyana edition No.5 is a unique and special bottle, produced at the renowned Diamond Distillery, the last remaining distillery in Guyana. This exquisite rum was distilled in 2003 using the Single Wooden Pot Still of Port Mourant, lending it a heavy and highly aromatic character. After an impressive 18 years of aging in Europe within ex-rum casks, this limited edition rum was bottled in 2022 by the esteemed independent bottler Kill Devil at a cask strength of 54.2% ABV. With only 242 bottles available globally, this rum offers an exceptional tasting experience. On the nose, expect a delightful blend of toasted notes and rich sweetness, with distinct hints of orange peel, peanut, tropical fruit, and toffee. The palate presents a harmonious balance of richness and spice, featuring flavors reminiscent of marzipan, raisin, orange peel, cashews, and vanilla. The finish is long and lingering, showcasing notes of oak, syrup, marzipan, anise, dried fruit, and spice. This complex and multifaceted rum exemplifies the potential of long aging for continental aged rums from the Port Mourant still, celebrated for its characteristic wood influences. With its rich and fruity profile, surprising notes of pineapple, marzipan, menthol, and toasted peanuts, and the added complexity of dry spice, acidic rot, green pepper, spicy peanuts, and salty anchovies, the Colours of Rum 2003 Diamond Guyana edition No.5 is a rum connoisseur's dream. Priced at a reasonable €150, it offers excellent value for a special, limited-edition bottling.
