You might expect a Guyana demerara to lean sweet, but this 2001 Skeldon reads dark and roasty first: coffee, mocha and burnt sugar with dried figs and a little chocolate underneath. The 51.4% ABV sits well integrated — one taster called it clean but still expressive. Several noticed an oily texture that leaves long curtains in the glass. Wood is present without taking over.

From community reviews · summarized with AI
Dark, coffee-and-caramel Guyana sipper Members really like this Skeldon — dark coffee, dried fruit and roasted notes with well-integrated alcohol. A couple found it almost too easy-drinking, with a shortish finish.

Review by Oliver
Mega nose with a great, dark profile. Clean and yet expressive. Plenty of power on the palate with lots of nut, spice and beautifully integrated sweetness. An absolute recommendation!
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I don't know where the host got this bottle and I don't care actually because this is a very nice Skeldon. Roasted wood with light fruit and spices as well as light coffee and chocolate. I like it, I like it a lot. The oily texture on the palate transfers into the most wonderful curtains in the glass that stay for a long time. The empty glass is amazing after an hour.
Review by Timo Groeger
And then here is the first really dreamy rum for today :-). On the nose we have coffee, it is very roasty and dark. On the palate it then becomes slightly sweetish, there is chocolate, also coffee, mocha and cappuccino. Super rum.
Review by Rodolphe
Super dark demerara. A typical very gourmand candied prune, with roasted notes and a woody presence but not too much. Honestly a great rum. Thanks Lukas!
Review by mto75
I really like, very nice round nose and palate. Maybe a little spicier (pepper, clove) than the 'standard'-S.B.S bottling. Many thanks to Luke for the bottle purchase!
Review by Martin Ekrt
After a long time of overtasting. Beautiful full-bodied aroma. It reminds me a lot of cofil. Taste is good too. Lots of caramel, coffee notes. Overall, kind of burnt. On the one hand, it's not a rum that's going to blow up, but it's definitely worth a try.
Review by tojo
In crosstasting with the "normal" S.B.S Skeldon, I only recognize minimal differences. The alcohol is slightly more present in the warehouse edition. However, both have very nice Guyana notes and can be recommended without reservation!
Review by Basti
A coffee note dominates the nose, accompanied by dried figs and licorice in the background. An exciting floral note on the palate, which quickly fades to make way for notes of coffee and spices. Alcohol is also well integrated here, but almost a little too drinkable/mild. The finish is rather short-medium.
Review by Filip Heimerle
Pleasant woody, slightly vanilla. Warm. Dried fruit. Pleasant mouthfeel without technical notes.
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Vintage 2001. I rate it 8.7 out of 10, an excellent rum that ranks high even among my more than 1,300 ratings.
