    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members rave about the expressive nose—glue, coconut and vanilla—leading to a caramelized, spicy palate with leather and toasted oak. Despite 55.1%, the ABV is widely praised as well integrated, making it an easy sipper neat. Frequently called complex, balanced and great value, with comparisons to top Demeraras. A limited 790-bottle Diamond 1998, and a popular choice with 113 reviews and strong buyer confidence.

    Very nice adhesive nose. Complex yet light on the palate. The perfect "velier saver" 😉

    Amazingly close to the Velier Demeraras and thus at a very high level. Great rum and a real PLV secret tip.

    my absolute Diamond reference!🤤for me the best Guyana Rum I've ever had. here goes in liquid form the sun rises. really nice sipper in the high end range! the thing is drinkable pineapple banana jam with a nice spice, Ordentlich glue and ester and just really great cinema! I am absolutely thrilled and could spend the whole evening with this drop. Really nice drop!For me on a par with uitvlugt ULR!

    A wonderful tropical ripened Demerara with lots of coconut. Beautiful nose, you can smell it forever. The alcohol is very well integrated, perhaps not quite as complex. The cask probably saw caramel in some form, very oily, dark and full-bodied.Another alternative from the underrated El Dorado Rare Collection. No idea why this one is still available, I've been saving up for it anyway.
