Diamond S.B.S Guyana SVL 2003 17yr 53,7%
The S.B.S Guyana SVL is a 17-year-aged gem from Diamond distillery, curated by 1423 World Class Spirits. Distilled in 2003 from molasses using a column still, this limited edition rum boasts just 161 bottles at a cask strength of 53.7% ABV. Users describe its aromatic profile as filled with vanilla, cherry, and sweet undertones, although some find the acidity and alcohol integration slightly harsh. On the palate, expect a sweet mixture of caramel, vanilla, and herbal notes, complemented by woody elements. While its fruity and caramel flavors captivate many, some critique its perceived artificial sweetness and uncharacteristic finish for a Guyanese rum.

“Very spicy nose ... Wood, sherry, candied fruit... Leather , quite sweetish minimal floral hints. On the palate again sweetish bitter ... Wood, roasted nuts ... Nougat. Dried fruits and again slightly floral. No surprise but quite ok.”

“Crass number. Blind I would have probably never thought that should be a Guyana rum! Rather a grand arome savanna or le galion with PX finish due to the almost artificial fruitiness after strawberry, cream candy, hubba bubba and laughing gum. In addition, there is a surprisingly intense sweet and light acetic acid, as well as light herbal notes and in the finish minimally bitter, sour and astringent and at the same time syrupy sweet.... Very very unusual...The acetic acid takes some getting used to and definitely not for every day.... And also the sweetness does not seem natural to me...Where these for Guyana untypical notes come from is really a mystery to me and I have never experienced so.For this I would like to get more information, because from Guyana is here almost no trace, at most in the finish then a bit...🤷🏼♂️”

“A fruity - sweet rum with a slight acidity reminiscent of vinegar. There are still herbs and various spices and a bitterness. The alcohol I felt only moderately well integrated. Nevertheless, an interesting rum.”
