Ultimatum 2004 Guyana Diamond 12-year-old rum is a distinguished offering from the Diamond Distillery in Guyana, bottled by the esteemed Ultimatum brand. Distilled in 2004 and bottled in 2016, this rum has aged for 12 years, resulting in a limited release of just 316 bottles. With an ABV of 46%, this rum exhibits a multifaceted character, crafted from the iconic Versailles still. On the nose, it presents a complex and nuanced aroma with hints of anise, oily notes, copper, waxes, and esters. The palate starts with an initial intensity that transitions into a smooth and slightly diluted texture, revealing flavors of yellow fruits. The finish is dry and thin, with lingering notes of dried fruit, coconut, and a hint of dilution. While Ultimatum 2004 Guyana Diamond 12yo offers a nuanced rum experience, blending intensity with smoothness and a dry character, it has received mixed reviews. Some find it underwhelming and suggest that a higher ABV might have enhanced its profile. However, it remains a noteworthy addition for those exploring the rich history and diverse expressions of Guyanese rums.

As a reviewer, I find the Ultimatum 2004 Guyana Diamond 12yo to be a well-crafted rum with a unique profile. Its aroma is inviting, with an interesting mix of anise and waxy notes. While the palate starts strong, it quickly transitions to a smoother, more diluted texture, which some might find underwhelming. The finish is dry and subtle, leaving a pleasant but somewhat fleeting impression. Overall, it's a rum that offers a sophisticated experience but may leave purists wishing for a bit more potency.
