Prunes, dried fruit and burnt caramel over leather, licorice and a tea-like bitterness, this 16 year old single cask Diamond from 2006 is a dry, roasted Demerara bottled unsweetened at cask strength, 53%.
Description
Denmark's RomDeluxe bottled this single cask 2006 Diamond for its Collectors Series, with 16 years of age and a darker, REV-style reading of the marque. The result leans roasted and woody rather than fruity, a focused take on the Diamond profile from this well-regarded vintage.
Matured in ex-bourbon and certified unsweetened at 53% cask strength, it shows prunes and dried fruit over burnt caramel, leather, licorice and a tea-like bitterness, closing woody and spicy. The roasted, old-wood character leads, with just enough caramel and fruit to keep it balanced and the smoke staying short of dominant. This is a slow, neat sipper for drinkers who enjoy darker, roastier Demerara more than juicy fruit, and it rewards time in the glass to open fully.
