Aroma visualization from community tastings
Diamond Kill Devil Guyana 2003
Oily wood, plum and a peppery clove bite lead here, with prunes, brown sugar and a faint smoke on the long finish. One taster found it fresh and lemony, another called out an almost numbing, fusel-oil edge and a paler colour than 16 years suggests. At 59.9% cask strength it runs hot, so a drop of water or a daiquiri tames it.
The community says- Long spicy finish
- Clove and raisin
- Fusel-oil edge

How does Diamond Kill Devil Guyana 2003 taste?
Aggregated from 24 community reviews.
Peppery, oily Guyana pot still at cask strength Split verdict: some love the spicy, clove-and-raisin length, others feel a young, anesthetizing fusel note undercuts the age. Works well in a daiquiri, hot when sipped neat.

Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
2003 (16 years old): spicy, even full-bodied! Carried by clove, raisin and brown sugar. Nice length, it's my favorite of the trio

Review by Cédric Meyers
Très belle longueur en bouche. Je l'ai pas super apprécié car il a un côté anesthésiant en bouche qui me perturbé un peu.
Review by Godspeed
Total rip-off when it comes to sippers. Very young, tastes of fusel oil, like an unaged whiskey. Very straw color, but in fact it's almost like it's not aged at all. A taste like this I expect from expressions less than 3 years old. For a 16-year-old rum, even if it is continental (no specificity in that respect), the quality for the price is just inexcusable. Shameful cash grab from Hunter Laing. Makes a very pleasant daiquiri all the same, but holy shit, you can find rums for daiquiris much cheaper than this. To be avoided.
