RX1643 Excellent Pot Still Rum Single Cask 364 bottles Above 250€
“Rich, complex, beautifully balanced; notes of leather, oak, and prunes.”

This exceptional PM from Velier, distilled in 1974 at the Port Mourant distillery in Guyana, stands out for its rich and complex profile. With an ABV of 54.5%, the nose reveals inviting notes of licorice, anise, tobacco, and black tea mixed with fresh leather and ripe fruits like mangoes and prunes. The palate is a masterful blend of sweet and savory, featuring oak, coffee, and sticky mocha flavors, complemented by hints of dark chocolate and toffee. This limited release (364 bottles) is celebrated for its superb balance and long finish, showcasing oak, raisins, and a touch of Japanese grape gummies. A true collector's item and a fine display of aged Demerara rum craftsmanship.

“Überragend und immer wieder beeindruckend demonstriert zu bekommen, wie wenig heutige PMs etwas mit den alten Demeraras zu tun haben. Sehr intensiver und komplexer Antritt. Da wären überreife dunkle Früchte und getrocknete Früchte wie Pflaume und Waldbeeren. Reichlich dunkle süße wie Cola, Karamell und brauner Zucker kommen hinzu. Und natürlich HOLZ, aber sehr schönes nasses Holz, das mit dem Rest wunderbar harmoniert. Im Mund dann sehr kräftig, ölig und erst mal süß. Die dunkle Früchte sind noch da, überlassen dann aber langsam der sehr würzigen holzigkeit mit einer schönen Bitterkeit das Feld Ergänzung: Verkostung September letzten Jahres. Inzwischen kann er im Vergleich mit diversen anderen PM aus den 60ger u 70ger kaum noch mithalten. Trotzdem ist das immer noch ein sehr guter Rum”
