I believe its made in Guyana with Demerara in its blend. may be in the blend, but Pyrat is way too sweet imo. I've always heard Pussers had some demerara in its blend as well, and it tastes to me like a jamaican/demerara blend. the other thing that may work well, is if you're making a cocktail calling for demerara and simple syrup, use dark jamaican and make your simple syrup from a brown sugar...
