I wanted to compare it with the one from yesterday (RX16395) to have a column vs pot still guyana

Overall both are nice but I have a clear preference for this one (RX13583)

Cheers!

I have 3 Guyana from closed that I’m hesitating to open, any input is welcome :

Heute mal die Chance genutzt den Füllstand des vor langem erworbenen Cinecane etwas zu reduzieren. Kein super Rum, aber im richtigen Ambiente (Kino) durchaus spannend.

FYI. 1920 Blenders passen in Kino Sitz Getränkgehalter in der Ostschweiz. Könnte also auch bei dir das Kino Erlebnis verbessern. Nächstes mal mit besserem Rum. (also bei mir)

You have some very good Demerara rums there. Nobilis is an underrated bottler with not so compact boxes and problems with corks/fill levels. This is my only complaint.

And yes, I also prefer Nobilis SWR 2001 to REV 2006. REV mark is my cup of tea, and this 2006 is a very good representative of that style. But this SWR is more unique, most probably due to longer maturation (21 vs 16 years) and barrel selection. Regarding those three Diamonds that you’ve mentioned - they are distilled on the French Savalle, like that SWR. But the style will differ due to different set up of the still (hence different marks), so please have in mind that all three most probably will be inferior to SWR and REV. I have the 2008 release for 1802 club, and it is more powerful and raw. 10%abv stronger, but with a good alcohol integration. I would recommend it for true lovers of Guyana - not so complex, but with power and necessary elements of a good Demerara rum. Closer to REV imho.

well, as I used to say „Demerara Rules“.

but sometimes, one needs some funk

I was genuinely worried that after the new open bottles from the weekend, that I would run out of space in the rum cabinet to store them all. My personal rule is that all open bottles must fit in the rum cabinet :sweat_smile:

It fits…

If there was one caroni to sample do you think this one epitomises caroni?

Warum sich bei dem Split nicht mehr Leute finden bleibt mir ein Rätsel!?
Herrlicher Rum mit viel überreifen tropischen Früchten, Estern, buttrigem Keksteig und leichtem Holz.

The markers of a caroni are definitely represented, whereby the red berries are not quite as present.

And the ABV is already quite strong. The RX6597 embodies the perfect Caroni for me

Trespassers is an excellent Caroni expression. But to define what ONE Caroni embodies the most, is impossible. That’s totally dependent on everyone’s personal taste.

The 21 core range is in terms of value for money also the true Caroni identity. The 2000 Millenium as wel, the 12 year old core range as well, goes terrific with coke, the Paradise series, the… etc

And the list goes on and on and on :joy:
