Hamilton 86 Demerara Rum is a Guyanese rum blended from aged Demerara Distillers Ltd. rums produced on both Coffey (column) and wooden pot stills, bottled at 86 proof (43% ABV). It offers a rich, full-bodied profile with notes of dark molasses, burnt sugar, dried fruit, and warm spice, making it well suited for sipping or use in tiki and other rum-forward cocktails.
