- Description
- This single-cask Guyanese rum distilled in 2012 at Albion—a distillery shuttered in 1968—was aged in ex-bourbon and bottled at cask strength (64.6%) in May 2022. The nose reveals peppery oak, manuka honey, pineapple, and papaya, while the palate unfolds dark chocolate, fiery ginger, dried mango, and vanilla in layered waves. A concentrated, bottling-strength expression suited to those seeking uncompromised intensity and provenance.
