Velier 1987 Demerara Full Proof 13yo is an exceptional rum that stands out as one of the early Demerara bottlings released by the renowned Velier brand. Distilled in June 1987 at the historic Enmore Distillery in Guyana, it underwent a continental aging process before being bottled at an impressive 56.6% ABV in November 2000. This 700ml gem is crafted from special casks, embodying the brand's dedication to quality and craftsmanship. On the nose, this rum presents a delightful medley of fruity and woody aromas, intertwined with enticing floral notes, vanilla, and a subtle touch of varnish. The palate delivers an intense and complex experience, masterfully balancing sweetness, wood, and fruit flavors. Notes of vanilla and floral hints persist, accompanied by a light leather nuance. The finish is long and intense, leaving a harmonious blend of wood, leather, and recurring floral notes. While some reviewers have lauded its floral and spicy complexity, others found it lighter and more delicate than expected, with dominant spirit characteristics. This unique and nuanced bottling from Velier is a must-try for enthusiasts of high-proof traditional rums, offering a distinctive tasting journey that reflects the rich heritage of the Enmore Distillery.
