More open and fruity with less heavy dark notes compared to continental aged 2001 batch.

Ottimo rum, ma il prezzo di 260 euro per me non vale l'acquisto. Ben equilibrato e rappresenta tutte le caratteristiche che adoro in un rum, purtroppo ve ne sono a mio avviso molti altri competitivi alla metà del prezzo. Fortuna che ho acquistato un campione. Al naso e al palato profumi boscosi e di cioccolato fondente. Vaniglia e caramello molto deboli e perfettamente integrati. Finale sotto le aspettative. Comunque un rum che non smetterei mai di bere.

Exzellente Abfüllung. Dass ein gänzlich tropisch gelagerter Guyana im Skeldon-Marque mit derart hochklassischem Profil so lange beinahe zum Ausgabepreis verfügbar bleibt ist angesichts der aktuellen Nachfrage rational nicht erklärbar.

Stellt deutlich teurere Guyana Columns in den Schatten! Mischung aus Velier Skeldon und El Dorado Albion. Überragendes PLV.

Ein sehr guter, tropisch gereifter Demerara. Ausgeprägte Einflüsse vom Fass und Rosinen. Mein Liebling aus der Reihe ist er nicht, aber ich empfehle sehr, ihn zu kosten.

Le frère du Skeldon 2001 S.B.S. “The Nectar”, mais avec des nuances. Un nez très proche avec du sucre brun, de la vanille. Plus de douceur. Une bouche sombre et vive, profonde et élégante. Une finale longue et riche. Le verre vide révèle plus de fruit et un léger fumé. On se croirait là aussi dans un club privé anglais. Incroyable que ce rhum soit encore disponible…

Volle Ladung Schokolade voran mit röstigen Aromen, dazu Frucht und Karamell. Riecht bombastisch lecker. Im Mund setzt sich die Nase fort. Das ist genau mein Geschmack, deshalb hohe Punktzahl. Wow! :O
