Drawn off the legendary Port Mourant double wooden pot still and finished in Port casks, this 17 Year Old Guyanese rum lays sherried dried fruit and roasted timber spice over the still’s signature anise, dark and powerful at 57.4%.
Description
Rum Nation bottled this 1999 vintage in its Rare Rums tier, where the rums are left dry, and it carries the unmistakable stamp of the Port Mourant double wooden pot still, the heaviest and most pungent of Guyana's surviving heritage stills. At 57.4% and seventeen years old it is built for slow, focused drinking rather than mixing.
Molasses distilled on that greenheart wood still gives the oily, liquorice-and-anise backbone, while the Port cask wraps it in dark dried fruit and sherried richness. Expect prune and berry, woody depth, a touch of salt, and a long finish of dark chocolate, toasted oak and that sawn-timber note no modern still can copy. The price-to-character balance makes it a fine way into serious Demerara without the towering proof of older single casks.
