O.V.D stands for Old Vatted Demerara, a style of rum blending unique to the Demerara region of Guyana. The rum is distilled from molasses in a wooden Coffey still in Guyana before it’s blended and bottled in Glasgow. A classic dark rum with an almost cult status, that’s packed with rich, creamy notes.
We reckon O.V.D. Demerara Rum is one of our Best Rums under £40!
Nose: Buttery, toffee-rich aromas. Dried peels, oak and stone fruit.
Palate: Syrupy, buttery palate. Sweetened coffee and banana sweets.
Finish: Medium-length finish, sparkling spices on the tail.

For me this is a real Rum moved to modern taste, butter, sultana, caramel. And toffee, rich aroma reminds me of sliding my finger under the optics on the spirit shelf in the pub of my childhood.Love it .

I love this one, I'm enjoying the Demerara Rums at the moment thanks to trying this one. Definitely worth a try at the price.

Been drinking rum neat for a good while now and can't deny this is a beautiful daily tibble indeed, I would honestly say the demerara rums are an acquired taste being so thick and syrupy but I would highly recommend warmed in the hand or radiator for 10 mins to breathe and drink naturally to where it's produced. Watson's demerara rum is also rather tasty 👍

I’ve been drinking OVD with coke for many years now and cannot fault it. I agree it is difficult to buy outside of Scotland so great excuse to stock up.

Smooth, sweet, simple. Fabulous. Mixes really well with cola. I’ve been drinking El Dorado 12 yr old rum until recently, which is more expensive, and I prefer this. This will be my go-to rum from now on.

The wife bought this as a surprise after reading the favorable reviews, Nice sipper, mixes well with Cola but gets lost when mixed with Ginger Beer. Better than Kraken.
