"A very woody nose. A hint of sweetness and caramel. A hint of strange soap. Same sensation on the palate. Very warm and woody. A double sensation, heavy and greedy at the same time. Caramel, licorice. Almost like a bourbon (very woody). A bitter finish. Finishes with a hint of spice and light pepper. Leather and earthiness. And good length. This rum could have been crushed by the wood. It's very woody, but greedy and pleasant. Very cool."
"The 2004 vintage is not my favorite. Too much licorice, molasses and herbs."
"In contrast to the RX9406 I had in my glass before, this is a typical Guyana representative. The profile is slowly picking me up more and more each time. This one is more on the woody and herbal side. The alcohol is well integrated and I find it very drinkable."
"If you want to feel the right Damond/Versailles rum, this is the one you should try. (Unfortunately Diamond is not my best rum profile, so just bellow 8/10 rating)"
