    How does this rum taste?

    Tamosi Oheru SWR leans into classic Skeldon territory: layered burnt sugar, caramel, and a deep roast coffee edge, with dried fruits—especially raisin and prune—consistently mentioned. Wood tones tie it all together, keeping sweetness in check; as @Jussi Piirainen says, "warm and balanced mouthfeel" and @m8375e calls it "easy drinking, wood and natural sweetness driven." Some find menthol and mint in the finish. Not the boldest in depth, but a solid reference point for those who favor the profile’s darker, lightly sweet notes.

    This is a very rare bottle and the price went up pretty quickly after the initial release. That said it's a really good Skeldon. The darkness is there combined with fruit and wood. The balance between the individual flavours is really good and the wood is not dominating.

    Der würzige Skeldon! Dunkel, Lakritz, gebrannter Zucker, Maggi, Fass, Schokolade, Kräuter und ein wenig Rosine. Könnte auch ein Port Mourant sein. Nicht unbedingt das, was ich von einem Skeldon erwarte und schätze. Trotzdem gut.

    Leckerer Skeldon hier von Tamosi. Hier kommt das typische Karamell, Malz, Trockenfrüchte und Schokolade Aroma zur Geltung zusammen mit einer eher ungewöhnlichen aber passenden Aromatik von Orangenschale und Limettenschale, sowie etwas Menthol und Minze. Der Alkohol ist gut integriert und generell sehr ausgewogen. Lecker!

    Schöne Abfüllung mit einer tollen, ausgewogenen Gesamtkombo. Klassische Marker, wunderbares Mundgefühl, viel Melassesirup und ordentlich Umami. Wie die meisten braucht er ordentlich Zeit zur Entfaltung. Im Skeldontasting im oberen Mittelfeld.
