Romdeluxe Skeldon Wild Series Rum No. 20 (Unicorn Set Vol 1) SWR 2001
Sip this one neat and give it real air first — several tasters say the alcohol only settles after a long rest. You'll find woody, roasted notes with raisin, vanilla and a bit of chocolate on the finish. It's the palest of the 2001 Skeldons and drinks lighter than 64% suggests. Opinions split hard: some enjoy the fruit-and-spice balance, others find it thin and sharp.
The community says- Roasted wood, raisin
- Chocolate finish
- But: Alcohol poorly integrated

The look inside the bottle
How does Romdeluxe Skeldon Wild Series Rum No. 20 (Unicorn Set Vol 1) SWR 2001 taste?
Aggregated from 20 community reviews.
Light, roasty Skeldon with hot, thin edges Genuinely divisive. Fans get warm chocolate, raisin and roasted wood once rested; critics call it thin for 64%, hot, and unusually light for a Skeldon — some even guessed Port Mourant blind.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I like this one. Despite the ABV the rum comes off warm and not alcoholic once rested. Really nice balance between fruit, wood and spices and I like the chocolate on the finish. The empty glass reveals even clearer flavours.
Review by Johannes
One can already perceive the Skeldon profile, but the alcohol is not well integrated. Unlike the other 2001 Skeldon, this is very bright, so uncolored.
