DDL Rum Club Switzerland No.2 SWR 2021
Punches way above its five years — that's the recurring surprise here. One taster blind-guessed a 20-year-old Diamond before learning the truth. Expect the full Guyana signature: dried fruit, caramel, wood, herbs and licorice, with a vanilla sweetness and buttery pastry note that softens the cask-strength heat. Nobody calls it groundbreaking, but the barrel influence sits nicely for the age.

Rich young Demerara, tastes older than 5 years Members keep landing on the same verdict: remarkably rich and integrated for only five years. A few find it almost too sweet, but the cask influence wins them over.

Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
A glass of this rum was handed to me by Sven, the founder of the Swiss Spirits Museum, at the 4th GAF 2026 in Stuttgart for a blind tasting – so not only a fair but also a blind rating (photo was provided to me later by Sven). Hardly any alcohol detectable on the nose, but I was immediately on the Guyana trip, which deepened after tasting. So I was already right there. I then guessed about a 20-year-old Diamond because the rum seemed dark, heavy and long-aged. Ha, I was way off – only 5 years of aging, amazing! Anyway, very drinkable and almost a bit too sweet, although certainly not sweetened afterwards. More than a solid thing!

Thanks to Switzerland, very nice that Sven let me taste at the 4th GAF in Stuttgart. For his young age, he can already do quite a bit. The barrel influence harmonizes very well here. Thanks for setting aside a bottle for a split.
Review by Skyfly
Das man einen Guyana im Glas hat wird einem beim Einschenken schon klar. Getrocknete Früchte, Karamell, Holz, Kräuter und Gewürze prägen das Aromenprofil von Anfang bis Ende. Nicht besonderes, aber für nur 5 Jahre Reifung kein schlechter Rum
Review by DomM
Very rich and deep for this comparable young age. The finish is very nicely integrated. I like it very much.
Review by Leo Krüper
Very exciting.
Review by Martin Spooner
An der Nase eine gewisse vanillige note mit durchaus roten Früchten. Am Gaumen dann durchaus eine positive vanillig benälckartige note ... Im Nachgang definitiv angenehm. Guter Rum ... Über 100 würde ich nicht bezahlen
Review by Jakob
Direktvergleich mit dem Soulfire (RX23636). Absolut vergleichbare DNA, der RCS überzeugt durch etwas zurückhaltendere Karamellsüsse, die dafür dem Alkoholgehalt etwas mehr Raum lässt. Gefällt mir durch das aromatisch vielschichtigere Gaumenspiel geschmacklich einen Ticken besser, bekommt aber einen leichten Bezug aufgrund der nicht ganz vollendeten Alkoholintegration. Unter den jungen Guyanas neueren Datums zählt das Release für mich aber ganz klar zu den besseren, auch wenn die Süsse natürlich gefallen muss.
Review by ArminK
Danke Jörg für die Verkostung ist schon etwas leckeres. Rauchige Nase mit getrockneten Früchten und allerlei Kräutern. Am Gaumen dann eine schöne Vanillesüße mit Buttergebäck aber doch die volle Fassstärke.
Review by Johannes
Sehr viel Vanillin aus einem wahrscheinlich frischen Eichenfass. Für das junge Alter ein erstaunlicher Fasseinfluss. Zudem Melasse, Karamell und Lakritz. Sehr gut für das junge Alter!
