S.B.S Guyana
Fans of dry, herbal Demeraras who enjoy licorice, tea-like bitterness and firm oak at near‑cask strength, and want a characterful single barrel rather than an easy, sweet sipper.

How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy the complex herbal, spicy Guyana profile and rich mouthfeel. Critics find it too woody, bitter and a bit hot for the age. Consensus: quality, dry, slightly polarizing Demerara.
If you like drier PM/Versailles-style Guyanas with herbal candy, licorice and oak, this will hit the spot; if you want lush fruit and easy sweetness, you’ll likely find it too austere.
Those sensitive to high ABV, anyone seeking sweet/fruity Guyana profiles, and drinkers who dislike woody, bitter or strongly herbal notes in their rum.

for me more like Versailles but probably PM. A bit harsh/austere for the age, still very good.
Kräuterbonbon ist das Thema. Gelungen arrangiert und sehr angenehm zu trinken.
Alles da, lecker und eher trocken mit Kräutern, Tee und Anis. Aber nicht herausragend. Für mich sehr angenehm und unkompliziert zu trinken.
