Rum Mezan Guyana Diamond 2003 comes from the legendary Diamond Distillery in Guyana, where it was traditionally distilled - using wooden pot stills and column stills, originally from Versailles Distillery. The distillation took place at a relatively low strength, which is typical for the Demerara style, and the original yeast strain from the distillery was also used. The producer maintains the philosophy of “The Untouched Rum,” meaning no added colors, sugars, or filtration.
The rum aged exclusively in ex-bourbon barrels made of American white oak. The process was two-phased - first tropical aging in Guyana, then continued aging on the European continent, allowing for a gentle maturation of aromas and flavors with a richer character.
The aroma of this rum is complex and elegant - notes of dried citrus fruits, tobacco, sweet warm wood, vanilla, and honey emerge. The taste features delicate esters with a hint of spice - clove, cinnamon, and a subtle oak undertone. Citrus notes are also present.
This rum is ideal for sipping neat at room temperature, where its layered aromas shine the most. It also pairs well with dark chocolate, roasted almonds, or fine cigars.
