    How does this rum taste?

    Black Tot Rum Demerara Aged 40 Years is a rare treasure from the Port Mourant distillery in Guyana, aged to perfection over four decades. This limited-edition rum, with just 300 bottles available, showcases a complex profile with prominent notes of barrel, tobacco, and anise on the nose, transitioning to a taste dominated by bitter raisin and woody mustiness. Distilled from molasses and bottled at cask strength of 44.2% ABV by Elixir Distillers, it intrigues both rum aficionados and collectors. The predominantly woody and aged characteristics, paired with a touch of chocolate and burnt caramel, deliver a unique drinking experience—though some find it slightly over-aged or lacking in depth. This makes it a compelling option for discerning palates.

    Barva je strašlivě tmavá, slrz lahev není ani náznakem vidět. Je to jeden z nejtmavějších nedobarvených rumů, co jsem kdy pil. Krásně voní, opravdu mne ta vůně baví a osobně mi evokuje vůni rozinek - sultánek, když se nově otevře pytlík. Krásná vůně rozinek, švestek, ovocitost. O to je pak rozdílnější na napití. Sultanky na patře přejdou v hořkou dřevitost. Upozadí se ovocnost a nastupuje dřevitost, horkost, kůže, tabák, tmavá čokoláda, spálený karamel. V chuti je cítit zatuchlina starých rumů jak jej známe z LastConsignmentu, prostě to co staré rumy dokážou. V závěru opravdu dlouhý ocas spáleného karamelu. Opravdu mi to chutná.

    Very special bottle indeed. The high age is very much noticeable and defining for this PM. While I think this is very enjoyable, I can understand any notion claiming this to be over aged.

    Ingenious Navy Rum you notice the long maturation. In the tasting comparison, most found the Last Consignment better, I personally liked the 40Y due to the even stronger maturation that you notice clearly in comparison better. Less fruity, but woodier, mustier than the Last Consignment. Arr!

    Guyana Concentrate. Liquid history. 🤯Slightly too bitter for a top rating.
