Mezan DDL Guyana 2007
Highly praised as a characterful Demerara with intense dried fruit, chocolate and wood, offering strong value for a 12-year cask strength despite some heat and a fairly focused profile.
Fans of robust Demerara rums who enjoy roasted, woody profiles with dark chocolate and dried fruits, and don’t mind working with cask strength using rest or a splash of water.

How does this rum taste?
Characterful cask strength Demerara
If you enjoy bold Demerara profiles like other Diamond cask strength bottlings, this Mezan offers similar roasted wood and dark fruit character at a strong value, provided you manage the heat.
Those sensitive to high ABV, looking for an easygoing sweet sipper, or expecting very high complexity and layered nuance.

Ein sehr guter Rum mit kräftiger Schlagseite zu Trockenpflaumen und Rosinen - lecker!. Karamelltöne und Vanille harmonieren gut. Ausgeprägte Konsistenz zwischen Geruch und Geschmack. Im Anhang kommen Tannine dazu. Einziger Nachteil: der Alkohol ist sehr präsent - mit ein paar Tropfen Wasser gewinnt der Rum nochmals an Komplexität.
Wow, ein klasse Demerara. In der Nase überwiegend Schokolade, aber auch Malz und Fass sind zu erkennen. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls überwiegend Schokolade (dunkle), aber auch Kakao und Holz sind zu erkennen. Alkohol super eingebunden, gefällt.
Fair warning, you have to rest this rum or the ABV will bite your nose and palate. Once rested it is a pretty good especially considering the price tag. The nose is fruity with vanilla, leather and light smoky wood. I also find a very light metallic kind of smell. The palate is fruity with chocolate, vanilla, leather and lightly roasted wood notes. The finish is very long and woody with dried fruit, vanilla and wet tobacco.
Premier Guyana, distillerie Diamond Premier nez "rustique", vieux bois Bouche concentré, rugueux et imposant, vieux bois prédominant, vanille, "orangette" avec côté chocolat noir légèrement amer et orange en fond, enrobé par touche de noisette grillée Côté intense et "sombre", comme le montre d'emblée de jeu la couleur Longueur moyenne Intéressant, inhabituel, en impose, mais trop peu d'arômes au nez
