    How does this rum taste?

    Deep, roasted Demerara elegance
    Who is this rum for?

    If you love dry, roasted Demeraras like Port Mourant or older El Dorado single casks, this Skeldon gives you that deep wood, leather and coffee profile with extra complexity and length.

    Not really suitable for

    Newcomers or those sensitive to higher ABV, firm tannins and dry, slightly bitter roasted notes who prefer soft, sweet, easygoing rums.

    Aroma

    Roasted Coffee Leather Caramel

    Skeldon fait rêver les amateurs. Qu’en est-il de la version “The Nectar” de l’embouteilleur S.B.S. ? Très beau nez, on se croirait dans un club privé anglais avec fauteuils en vieux cuir et un soupçon de fumé. Un nez très profond avec un soupçon de Kirsch. La bouche est très ample et souple. On retrouve le vieux cuir et un peu d’amandes amères. La finale est super longue, presque infinie. Le verre vide a une complexité de parfum, avec des notes de base (bois, cuir, sucre) et des notes de tête avec des fruits secs, de la vanille et des fruits très mûrs. Regoûté et un net cran en dessous du El Dorado tout en restant un rhum splendide.

    Now this is a demerara Rum, wow.If you rest this one for 15 minutes you're going to be in roasted nutty heaven. The roasted oak is heavy from nose to finish without being too dominant. Wonderfully balanced in its complexity.Spice, licorice and chocolate envelopes this to create a perfect harmony on your palate.Great rum unfortunately also not on my shelves.

    Had a small tasting today in the company of Mr. Joshua Singh himself. Great stuff ❤️

    Alcohol is not optimally integrated. Nevertheless, good Skeldon.
