This 18-year-old rum emerges from the depths of the Diamond Distillery, where the storied Savalle still stands tall and proud. This four-column French marvel, a relic inherited from the 18th-century Uitvlugt Estate, has weathered the tempests of time to produce a rum of unparalleled character, bearing the coveted SVL marque.
Realeased by That Boutique-y Rum Company as part of its perilous End of the World series, the label unfurls a visual odyssey — a ship gallantly sailing through a river of rich Demerara molasses. The air is thick with the heady aroma, and the traditional burning of sugarcane appears untamed, an elemental dance of fire against the canvas of time. So, my fellow adventurers, let the allure of this rum be your compass as we navigate the river of molten molasses, embracing the overwhelming dread of the end of the world.
Batch 4 is a release of 294 bottles.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose Dense, dark molasses, buttery caramel, and honeyed dates are backed by cacao and a touch of nougat.
Palate Soft and oily with plump chocolate raisins, burnt brown sugar, and layers of runny caramel.
Finish Juicy raisins linger, with cakey spice and leathery old oak.
