    How does this rum taste?

    The Two Flags Rum by Craigton Packaging LTD is a limited edition spirit distilled in 1996 at Guyana's Diamond Distillery from molasses. At 50.7% ABV, it presents a complex profile characterized by leathery, licorice, and smoky notes. Users appreciate its well-balanced sweetness, subtle bitterness, and the presence of dried fruits and prunes. The rum's mature, full-bodied nature and intricate layering make it a contemplative sip, especially around festive gatherings. It is highly regarded for its smooth integration of alcohol and intriguing smoky finish. Despite being a rare find, collectors and enthusiasts value its distinctive character and limited availability.

    Edit: actually a little too bitter for me, corrected downwards again. All in all, a solid rum. There is a slight bitterness in the taste that bothers me a little. Otherwise the rating would have been higher. The alcohol is well integrated.

    No Velier but a very nice taste experience. Absolutely top for the price. Due to the volume and the relative sweetness, it goes down well, dangerously drinkable, yet complex and a nice journey of discovery.

    Beautifully complex, lots of molasses, alcohol very well integrated!

    This Diamond is heavy and dark. Immediately leather, licorice and Maggi on the nose. But also a slight sweetness of burnt sugar and nuts. This interplay of aromas continues almost seamlessly on the palate. Overall, a little tiring, but still just okay
