Rum Nation Versailles Demerara 1985
Highly praised classic Versailles: balanced, elegant and aromatic with cherry, coffee and dried fruits. A refined, easy-drinking Demerara that rewards slow sipping rather than raw power.
Fans of classic Demerara who enjoy refined, lower-ABV sippers with cherry, coffee and dried-fruit notes rather than big, aggressive power.

How does this rum taste?
Elegant, relaxed old-school Versailles
If you enjoy elegant Demeraras like El Dorado single stills, this is a smoother, nostalgic Versailles that trades intensity for balance and easy sipping.
Those chasing high-ABV intensity, very long finishes, or loud funky profiles; drinkers wanting a powerhouse cask strength experience.

Nice Versailles but fades very fast
