Demerara MPM 2008 #76

In April 2008, this rum was distilled in the historic, double-wooden pot still at the Diamond Distillery then shipped to the UK where it was aged in once-used bourbon barrels. It continued to mature in the UK until it was shipped to the US for bottling in 2021.

Only 192 bottles of this single cask, thirteen-year-old, Port Mourant rum were bottled as part of my Single Cask Strength Collection.

The label on this bottle shows 12 years, but this was bottled in Sept 2021 so this is a 13 year old rum. There was an error on the label that got by me when I proofed these labels.

The molasses used at Demerara Distillers Ltd comes from Guyana and contained 65% dissolved sugar, one of the highest sugar contents of any molasses found in the Caribbean. The high sugar content is attributed to the age of the Guyanese sugar mill.
This rum was distilled the double wooden pot still that was originally put into service in the early 19th century on the Port Mourant Estate on the west bank of the Demerara River. Like the other wood stills at Diamond Estate it is made of greenheart wood, which is revered for its durability when exposed to elements such as moisture and heat, not to mention its resistance to rot and insects including termites.
