"A warm, full nose. Very mature, smooth and balanced. Complex and spicy. Wood, burnt sugar and spices in the mouth. Not particularly powerful (but far from watered down). Nice finish. A nice, archetypal Demerara, quaffable and enjoyable. For higher consecrations but then lacks the special."

"Again a Versailles, which is not immediately apparent in view of the color. Lots of tart spiciness, toasted notes and slight bitterness from the wood as well as subtle tea aromas. To me, it lacks some fresh fruit to bring in more balance. Overall exciting, but not one of my Versailles favorites."

"This is a great Guyanese rum from S.B.S. With a lot of nose and flawours. A well balanced and complex 28 year rum that you should try if you're a rum nerd. "
