Description

A bottle of Colonel Sunset Finest Demerara Rum, produced in Guyana. Imported and bottled by John Buccleugh & Co Ltd at 51.4% ABV.

This lot comes from a large collection built up during the 1970s in Kent, England. For 50 years the owner displayed the collection in the family’s home bar, with later additions being gifted to the collector by friends and family. Then in 2021 the collection was dismantled to be sold at auction. Many of the bottles have stickers that show the original price paid and the date (month/year) of purchase.

This Colonel Sunset Finest Demerara Rum sold at our online auction for £350
