    The Nectar Of The Daily Drams SWR is a distinguished rum distilled in 1997 at Guyana's Skeldon distillery. Aged for 25 years, it offers a dark, flavorful profile marked by treacle, mocha, and roasted notes. Users appreciate its complexity, drawing attention to leather, vanilla, and woody aromas. While the heavy spiced and sweet profile is enjoyed by many, some find its woody bitterness a bit overpowering and the finish slightly weak due to the moderte 47.6% ABV.

    "Dunkle und Schwer kommt er rüber... Viel Dunkle Früchte.... Pflaumen und Rosinen Trockenfrüchte generell sind sehr im Vordergrund. Ordentlich Holz aber auch eine Schöne Süße... Ölig und kaum Alkohol im Mund zu spüren."

    "Nice demerara profile. Pleasant drinking strength, heavy syrupy sweetness, vanilla, tobacco and barrel are well integrated, malt, coffee and dried yellow fruit."

    "Like the dark and heavy profile. Very much on the edge of being too woody, though. SBS has clearly the upper hand side-by-side. Side-by-side with some 2001 SWRs, the 1997 come out much more elegant and a little more moderated. Wood influence is more accentuated, on the edge of being overwhelming."

    "good SWR/Skeldon, only the finish is somewhat weak, but this is also due to the rather low ABV."
