That Boutique-Y Rum Co. Diamond Distillery 16 Year Old

Its the second batch of fantastic Guyanese rum from the Diamond Distillery and its wooden Versailles still bottled by That Boutique-y Rum Company! This one was allowed to age for 16 years, developing a wonderfully rich flavour profile of spice, fruit and vanilla. Yes, the still is wooden, which sounds ridiculous (like a chocolate teapot or a glass hammer), but the proof is in the pudding. Or rum. You could enjoy it as pudding, if you like.Batch 2 is a release of 578 bottles.Tasting Notes By Masters of Malt: Nose: Creosote, tobacco, stem ginger and a hint of raspberry are balanced by some sweeter notes of vanilla and dark berries. Palate: Black fruits, green apple and smokier notes of charcoal emerge through zesty oak spice, then leather and toffee treacle with just a touch of pineapple to add a little sweetness. Finish: Long and spicy with a lot of complexity.
