TBRC Diamond Distillery (Savalle Still) SVL 2004
Dark chocolate and coffee lead here, with dried fruit, molasses and a touch of leather behind them — a dark, almost Spanish-leaning Guyana from the Savalle still. At 57.4% the alcohol sits well integrated, and despite the strength it drinks softer than you'd expect. Members like it but keep landing on the same note: pleasant and balanced rather than complex, with a finish that fades early.

Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Dark chocolate-and-coffee Guyana, easy for 57% Well-liked as an easy-drinking older Guyana, but several tasters call it a touch too easy — enjoyable and balanced, just short on complexity, with a quick finish.

This SVL Mark continues to cause question marks in my taste memory. Joshua (1423) said it might not be a DDL Mark, but what style does it represent? The nose is light and pleasant. Coffee, chocolate, roasted caramel. Raisins, a hint of tobacco. A dark, but almost Spanish style. On the palate, it is very sweet for an unsweetened rum. Chocolate pudding with caramel sauce, also a decent portion of red jam. Still a very soft and rather light rum. Yet the impression is not super flat or boring. An easy sipper that maybe turned out a bit too easy. Overall surprisingly little wood or bitterness and tannins that it usually brings. The finish is short and unspectacular, but also without flaws.

Thanks first of all to Lukasdrinkinghabits for the mega-split back then. For me, a solid bottling for a reasonably fair price. Not bad, but unfortunately not outstanding either, but not bad for sipping with a cigar in between. But there are still better things.

#7352 23.09.2026 Relaxing with some samples after my training and starting to pack my stuff for Whisky Live Paris. Blasting some Trance Tracks from Spotify. Very nice Diamond and the price tag at release was very good. Molasses run profile with fruits, caramel, roasted wood, spice, chocolate, coffee, leather, light chocolate and a light bitter palate-
Review by Serge
Direct comparison of the two TBRC Diamond Savalle SVL bottlings of batches #2 (19 yo / rx18179 and #4 / 18760) Both are nice and dark in color but not too malty due to the coloration. The nose of batch #2 is nice and dark but a bit reserved (but gets better after a while and coconut is added) and great fruity notes in batch #4. On the palate, nice dried fruit in batch #4 and a bit more bitter, malty but also drier in batch #2. Both are good, but my preference clearly goes to batch #4
Review by Michael Schou
14-02-2025 - Rate 8.8 Decent and good Savalle. Nice age and ABV. What you would expect from 19 year old Savalle 21-11-2025 - Rate 8.9 Taste and smell are dominated by wood/oak, dried fruit and dark chocolate. Medium finish also dominated by dried fruit and oak
Review by Thunderbird
Direct comparison with batch #4 from TBRC. This Diamond (Batch #2) is somewhat weaker and darker overall than Batch #4. Coffee and spice aromas predominate. The alcohol is well integrated. However, I clearly prefer Batch #4, which is somewhat stronger and fruitier
Review by Long John Silver
On the nose it starts with brown caramel, red fruits, dried fruits, leather and lots of dark chocolate. All this well tied together by a very fine spiciness. The dark chocolate then, with coffee, is found very strongly also in the mouth, where however it becomes less sharp and softens thanks to the arrival of molasses, caramel and pepper. Finally, in the finish the dark chocolate is less present and gives way to coffee, whose acidity is softened by the woodiness of the barrel and burnt sugar. Really very interesting
Review by Schnubbii
I don't find much else on the nose apart from light caramel. On the palate, I then have mainly burnt caramel, along with a slight spiciness, you can feel the alcohol a little. Even after breathing for a while, not much more happens here. With a little water, it opens up slightly and becomes more accessible, but not really more complex. The finish is short to medium-long. Not a bad rum, but somehow also somewhat irrelevant. You're not really missing anything here.
Review by Dw117
Lovely rum grabbed for an absolute steal of £50! Full of chocolate and dark fruit. This one is complex and rich but quite challenging… tastes much better at the end of a tasting, rather than the start. I wonder how the price can be so low for such quality. Put it in a black bottle and I’m sure people will pay triple 😉
Review by Martin Švojgr
Well, that was good. I haven't had alcohol for a month, so now I'm feeling all the flavors more intensely. Good woody Guyana, lots of dried fruit, coffee (which lingers on the finish), chocolate. Aroma of chocolate and coffee with some nuts. It's very hilarious and I wouldn't be afraid to have a bottle.
Review by Alexander Rasch
An accessible Guyana rum with lots of coffee, roasted aromas, spice and red fruits. Somewhat closed on the nose and pleasant to drink on the palate, not too dry but still quite intense. Not particularly complex, but an easy sipper.
Review by Martin Ekrt
Heavy honest Guyana on the nose and in the taste. Dried fruit, maybe dates, caramel. Nicely dense woody and balanced. This really came through. None of it stands out too much, but at the same time it's not boring. It just needs a longer finish.
Review by Joseph Grant
Good rum. Compared to the 18 year diamond saville still also from boutique-y it's very similar but slightly richer with some dried fruits. Very drinkable considering the abv but a bit tannic and drying on the finish which slightly pulls the score down for me.
Review by Ed Stark
I like this rum.. Chocolatey, tobacco, sweet, very delicious..
Review by FischeJ
Quite roasty, coffee, chocolate, and caramel. A hint of plum jam. Very similar profile in the mouth. Quite one-dimensional.
