    "It’s possible to find the Gunpowder Proof in three different blends. The oldest one consists of rum from Guyana, Trinidad and Barbados. After that it came with a blend of Guyana and Trinidad rum. The latest one just consists of different rum from Guyana. The one I review here is the latest one. I think it’s quite complex with a good balance between sweetness and dryness."

    "EDIT: I finally got into the swing of things during this new tasting! Frankly disconcerting in true English style, and quite nice. Gotta love the character. On the nose: Molasses, brown sugar, caramel, nutmeg, coffee? On the palate: Coffee, coarse spices. Finish: slightly spicy, fairly short."

    "Great Demerara flavors that are very complex. Yes it is young and you can tell, but I don't mind it for its intended use. Very good PLV."
