Pusser's used to buy rum from DDL, but they no longer do. There is no Guyana rum in there. There may be molasses from Guyana that was turned into rum in another country and used in the Pusser's blend, but that's another story- Guyana is a net exporter of molasses and many countries use Guyana molasses. Pusser's is vague today about where the rum comes from- yes it has definitely changed. There were also some ownership changes, but now it is back in the hands of the founder.

Sebastian's! Haven't seen that since 2001. Did you actually see a distillery? I thought they just bought rum and spiced it themselves. When I bought a bottle, it was all photocopied labels and different bottles fished out of the trash that they used. Great little joint.
