El Dorado Rare Collection R3 Diamond 1998-2018 20 YO <SWR> DLR (55.1%)
One of two very limited releases from the third batch of the 'Rare Collection' series in 2018.
El Dorado Rare Collection Diamond 1998 comes from the great Diamond distillery in Guyana (British Guiana). The distillery was smaller when this rum was created, however, as the country's other distilleries have since moved away. Barrels and stills were transferred to Diamond.
This expression contains a blend of selected rums from Diamond s famous Coffey Still and Saville Still. These spirits were given the Marques SVW and DLR, and blended in the barrel before 20 years of tropical aging an astonishing maturation given the heat and climate of Guyana.
Only 790 bottles were produced. This is a very limited edition, specially designed for the French distributor CBH.
A ludicrously rich and delicious rum.
Tasting Notes:
Experience the enchanting aroma of tempting vanilla, rich oak, tropical coconut, and toasted undertones that waltz with an intriguing hint of glue. As you indulge, bask in a complex and luxurious flavor profile of robust oak, smooth leather, irresistible caramelized notes, spicy undertones, and alluring vanilla.
"A beautiful intensity for this Demerara, which draws all its character from its long ageing in bourbon barrels...". - Nico, Rhum Attitude
"This might be my favorite El Dorado to date I think." - Single Cask Rum
"A superbly complete Diamond. Gluey, salty, dark molasses caramel. Roasted spice. Prunes. Less bitter than the first two. Heavily toasted coconut leads to a long and complex finish. The most balanced, and easily the most delicious of the three." - Stuart Pearce, Secret Rum Bar
