The Kill Devil 2001 Single Cask Guyana Savalle Still 15yo 46% 700ml is an exceptional rum that showcases an intricate and robust profile. Distilled in June 2001 at the historic Diamond Distillery using one of the two four-column Savalle stills from the now-closed Uitvlugt distillery, this rum carries a legacy dating back to the 18th century. Aged for 15 years in a single cask, numbered HL15468, and bottled in 2016, only 276 bottles of this rare gem exist. The nose is an exquisite blend of powdery wood and a hint of oxidation, leading to aromas of roasted nuts and dried fruits such as prunes, dates, and figs. Subtle hints of black grape tannins and a vinous quality reminiscent of port add depth to its bouquet. On the palate, the rum presents a sweet and thick sensation of molasses, complemented by the return of roasted nuts and the addition of toasted oak. The mid-palate transitions into a slightly drying experience with herbaceous notes of medicinal plants and aromatics like basil. The finish is long-lasting, marked by a strong menthol note and the lingering flavors of roasted nuts. This unique bottling by the renowned Kill Devil brand offers a complex and multifaceted rum experience, making it a prized addition for any connoisseur.
