Warm, spicy profile with woody notes, vanilla and dried fruit, plus a subtle whisky touch. Good value and opens with air, though some found the aroma and alcohol young.

    How does this rum taste?

    Praised for value and raw cask authenticity, this Diamond 2011 offers a warm, spicy palate balanced by woody tones, vanilla and dried-fruit sweetness, plus a subtle whisky note. The nose shows molasses, toffee, banana, and some olive hints. It opens nicely after a short rest. A few found the alcohol young and aroma subdued, yet it’s backed by 10 RumX reviews with buyer confidence building.

    Price to quality is really good on this bottle. I do like that you can see that it's a true raw cask. The bottle we sampled had a nice pile of sediment at the bottom. Really nice bahan style rum in the flavours with a touch of whisky in the back. Nice balance between wood and spices as well as the nice fruitiness. Warm and spicy on the palate but after resting for 15-20 minutes it's ready.

    A rum I brought while on a getaway in April 2024. Very heavy in the nose, with hints of olives and molasses. It has a depth in flavor with notes of nut, olive-oil and a dried fruityness in the aftertaste.

    02-03-2024 Tasted at Whiskymessen.dk Ninth rum was this Diamond from Blackadder. Missing some character. A bit to suddle

    The aroma is rather disappointing. Palate is better but still tastes quite young. When tasting this blind, I would not guess it's from Guyana. Not my favourite bottling from Blackadder, but price-quality is still ok.
