The Nectar Diamond The Nectar Of The Daily Drams SV 2001

Strong notes of chocolate and coffee, fruity to it. For me the best Guyana rum so far

Incredibly present chocolate and coffee notes from start to finish. Yes, beyond that not much else, in fact not very complex, but I like the rum precisely because of this honest one-dimensionality. A rum that does not demand too much, but most will taste very good, because it seems round and you just maybe not every day rum with all sorts of rough edges can and will drink.Recommendation.

Some citrus jelly notes on the nose, which I also discovered in the Nobilis release. I get a very strong menthol note on the palate, which I couldn’t find in any other 2001 SWR yet. Very interesting twist, however overpowering some of the nice Karamell and fruit notes which are more articulated in the SBS release for example.

Welcome to the dark side of power😉 That's how I like Guyana, a wonderfully elegant sweet/spicy nose that you could sniff forever. The palate also shows its dark side again, sweet with lots of dark chocolate, on the verge of becoming bitter, lots of roasted aromas, plus leather and mocha, which is exactly how it finishes. 😍👍🏻

Schöne Leder, Schokoladennote Super ausgewogen und rund. Diamond von seiner schönen Seite.

Oh i sometimes fear those young-ish licqorice Demeraras. But this one works just fine. Potent and strong, but really keeping a complex elegancy. I really like this thingy a lot. The palate comes with more burned sugars and a lovely brandy touch.

On the nose, strong memories of a REV - but with less plum and a lot of cappuccino. On the palate toasty, caramel and just very tasty. Great roasted notes without becoming too bitter. Very good Guyana rum!

Oh man, old Demerara are so awesome. I can't get enough of the nose especially: complex, intense and just plain delicious. Dark, sweet-juicy cherry, tart-sweet black currant, old blood orange plus prune and dried apricot. Behind that, heavy sweetness of dark maple syrup. Fragrant cedar with vanilla and maggi come in. Wonderful.Palate: nicely woody-roasty as expected. Old wood. A bit bitter and salty at the start, also seems a bit thin at first but becomes increasingly intense. Strongly nutty, hazelnut or walnut, plus mocha and dark chocolate with a bit of vanilla. Remains roasty and dark even in the finish, slightly Maggi.A really nice old SV with a super nose and a roasty palate, which is somewhat inferior to the nose.

Delicious stuff! Very toasty, dark and bitter, which I normally rather not really like. Here these notes come together rather to a coffee / cocoa flavor, in contrast to the otherwise present bitterness of the wood. Of course, these also come from the wood here and make the 21 years in the barrel clear, but still mixes a slight sweetness among them, which I like very much. Otherwise, although somewhat one-dimensional without real depth, but still a strong Demerara!

Heavy, bold, creamy. Immediately coffee, cacao. Soft moka. Dark, bitter chocolate. And then comes out dried fruits. Lovely stuff. Tobacco, hematogen (Google…)

A rich, smooth Diamond, with subtle notes of dried fruit (prune, apricot) and red fruit (cherry) on the nose, before sweet spices, cocoa, coffee and wood take over. The dark side emerges with a slight sweetness of caramel and honey. A slight freshness and herbaceousness emerges after aeration. A soft, elegant olfactory profile. The attack on the palate follows on from the nose. The sweetness (caramel, cola, honey), the dark side (dark chocolate, leather, mocha) and the fruity side (prune) are all there. Wood and spice melt into this voluptuous, rounded mass. Alcohol goes unnoticed. The finish is long, with dark chocolate and leather bitterness, prunes and the darker side of Demerara rums (spices, wood, roasted notes and baked caramel). A sensual, elegant and highly appealing Diamond.

Tasted as part of a split with 3 2001 SWR (SBS

Pleasing bottling. Caramel, chocolate, nice roasted note. Alcohol you do not notice at all. But also a bit boring, because it lacks some depth.

Wow, chocolate/coffee/cherries from start to finish. Pretty intense & roasted. Hard to rate since it is a bit one dimensional, but really excels there! Great drop if you are in the right mood.

I find it very similar to the many existing 2001 SWRs. Compared to the SWR, it is a bit more delicate, less molasses/malt note, less depth, less complexity. Still a good drop!
