How does this rum taste?
The S.B.S Guyana 17-Year-Old Rum, distilled by Demerara Distillers Ltd in Guyana and bottled by 1423 World Class Spirits, showcases a vibrant herbal and spicy profile. Distilled in 2003 from molasses using a pot still, this rum has aged gracefully, offering complex notes of licorice, dried fruits, and woody spices. Bottled at 59.7% ABV, it delivers a strong and full-bodied experience, with a warm, lingering finish. Some reviewers found its astringency and bitter undertones challenging, while others appreciated its rich, herbal complexity. This limited release, with only 258 bottles, is a testament to the diverse, bold flavors of Demerara rums and caters to those who appreciate distinct, herbal spirits.

Herbal tea meets Guyana. Well, nose still exciting / complex (herbal, nutty, roasty, fruity) and makes you want more, but in the mouth then woody, dry, spicy, tart. Would have liked more roasted flavors, caramel and fruit. In the finish a lot of licorice, spices and dried fruit, which what does not quite meet my taste.
Guyana can be a little tricky in my taste. There are the ones that I love and the ones that I’m not the biggest fan of. Those are the herbal and vegetal ones. This one tastes a lot like a very herbal PM, in addition to some wood and spices a a touch of fruit. Interesting but not for me.
Had a wonderful evening with some new faces for a super S.B.S tasting. Nice and lightly fruity rum with a nice spicy/warm kick to it. Lightly woody with a perfect ble d of spices.
Not bad, but clearly the weakest bottling from the four S.B.S Guyana releases. Good high-quality rum, but too interchangeable.
