Unveiling the S.B.S 2001 Guyana Diamond Skeldon SWR Cask Strength Warehouse #1, a gem that's been in the making for two decades. Distilled in 2001 at the renowned Diamond Distillery in Guyana and bottled in 2021, this limited edition rum boasts only 170 bottles, each one a testament to the craftsmanship and heritage of the S.B.S brand. With an ABV of 51.4% and presented in a 700ml bottle, this Skeldon expression offers a robust and nuanced experience for the discerning palate.
The aroma is an enticing medley of dried fruits, rich roasted notes including coffee and cloves, accompanied by caramel, vanilla, and a subtle woody undertone. On the palate, the journey continues with flavors of dried fruits and roasted nuts, enveloped in mocha and creamy textures, accented by burnt sugar and coffee. The finish is a delightful tapestry of dried fruits, malt, leather, and roasted notes, rounded off with raisin, woody elements, caramel, black tea, and vanilla.
Overall, this rum presents a complex and satisfying blend, meticulously balancing dark fruit, roasted notes, and sweet, spicy nuances. It's a sensory voyage that culminates in a lingering finish with hints of leather and black tea, a true testament to the Skeldon legacy.
The Warehouse #1 edition has a more pronounced alcohol presence and offers a slightly spicier profile with notes of pepper and clove, while maintaining the beautiful Guyana notes characteristic of the S.B.S Skeldon series.
The primary tasting notes include dried fruit, roasted coffee, spices, creamy mocha, burnt sugar, and caramel.
This rum has an oily texture that translates into beautiful curtains in the glass, providing a long-lasting and enjoyable experience.
In my experience, the S.B.S 2001 Guyana Diamond Skeldon SWR Cask Strength Warehouse #1 is an exceptional rum that stands out for its rich, layered flavors and impeccable balance. The roasted wood, light fruit, and spice notes, coupled with subtle hints of coffee and chocolate, offer an incredibly enjoyable drinking experience. The oily texture and lasting presence in the glass further elevate its appeal, making it a must-have for any rum aficionado.
