- Description
- Diamond distillery's 2011 pot-still rum, aged five years in Guyana before spending seven years in European ex-whisky casks. The extended maturation creates an oily, complex spirit with aniseed, menthol, green olives, and leather notes layered beneath caramel sweetness. This is a challenging, savoury rum for experienced drinkers who appreciate funk and unusual aromatics over tropical fruit.
