Berry Bros & Rudd Versailles Finest Demerara Rum 1985 22yr 46%
The Finest Demerara Rum, distilled at Versailles in Guyana in 1985, is a quintessential representation of the wooden pot still tradition.

On the palate, woody and herbal notes dominate, complemented by an oily, slightly salty texture. Appreciated for its balance and distillate-driven character, it maintains a medium-long finish with earthier flavors like licorice and plum, resonating well among enthusiasts who enjoy rich and intricate rums.

“Genauso stelle ich ihn mir vor und genauso schmeckt er auch. Trotz des geringen ABV ist er denoch genial und braucht auch wirklich mehr wumms. Rundum ein sehr gelungener Tropfen, von dem ich sehr gerne eine Flasche besitzen würde.”

“Whisky Fair 2023 tasting. Typical Versailles profile with herbal/farmy/woody notes. Still powerful for the old age with a medium long finish. Oily mouthfeel with strong notes. Really enjoyable and distillate driven without any cask influence to distract.”

“The prototypical Versailles. You have to love everything about it. For 46% this is full and perfect. An indulgence that shines through with dry wooden notes that mingle with fruit and loveliness. Please more”
