    A very light and easy to drink rum. Unlike other rums from Bristol Clasics this one has been coloured with caramel. This rum was destilled by Diamond Destillery in Guyana.

    It's bloody awful, actually just burnt sugar in a burnt barrel. And thin too....

    Dost slabá guyana. Velmi slaba chut vune i zaver...skoda i 40%
