Demerara

Introduction

Guyana, a small country on the northern coast of South America, holds a treasure trove of history and culture, particularly in the world of rum. Despite its geographical location in South America, Guyana is a proud member of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) and is unique in being the only country in South America where English is the official language. The Demerara region, famous for its rich and distinctive rum, is also renowned for producing Demerara sugar, a golden-brown sugar with a rich molasses flavor that has been highly sought after for centuries.

All eyes on … 4 of the rarest and surely most extraordinarily Rums in terms of history and even more – in quality!

Surely we are talking about those 4 legendary 1964 Port Morant bottlings – distilled in the Double Wooden Pot Still at Uitvlugt Distillery. That famouse wooden Still was removed at the closed Port Morant Distillery  and rebuild at Uitvlugt Distillery in the middle oft he last century. Bottled by the legendary independent bottler William Cadenhead, founded back in the year 1842.
