Hamilton Guyana 151

This 151 demerara rum is delightful. It's great to mix with and is nice enough on it's own to be able to sipped if you dare. The 151 proof is definitely there, but it doesn't have an overwhelming or unpleasant burn. This will remain a go to 151 for me.

Aroma - alcohol followed by plum and brown sugar

Taste - molasses followed by burnt sugar, and an allspice and barrel spice finish

Delicious! A surprisingly smooth high proof rum that tastes like oak and vanilla. The best American made rum I’ve ever had. Very good.

Beautiful color and aroma. Just a splash of water as this is a magnificent sipper. Need to try it head to head with Pusser Gunpowder

Not that there's a big range in this category, mind you. But holy moly does Hamilton's 151 nail all the roasty toasty sugary Demerara notes, kicked up to 11. If you can handle the heat, it's an incredible sipper, and given that around here it goes for $10 a bottle less than the Lemon Hart Overproof, it's hard to even consider the competition.

I've enjoyed this rum in many tiki-cocktails, as well as neat. It smells like butterscotch and tastes like fiery, buttery cinnamon.

Smooth and almost buttery mouth feel followed by an expected strong throat burn (what do you expect at 75%?). Powerful flavors of butter, brown sugar, molasses, and slight banana. Nice lingering finish that warms your whole chest. For me, slightly better than Plantation's O.F.T.D. which makes it my favorite overproof so far.

Hamilton 151 is a high proof fire breather. This overproof beast is my number one choice for the overproof in the Jet Pilot tiki cocktail as printed in Smuggler's Cove.

Better than Pussers and Lemon hart imo. Really good in cocktails and sipping

This is the best overproof I’ve tried. If you’re choosing between this or Lemon Heart, get this. It still retains its Demerara roots, and holds up in drinks.
