Il Valinch & Diamond Mallet 20 y.o. Skeldon plays part of "The Spirit of Art Limited Edition"

It is a rum produced in 2001 from molasses, within the Diamond distillery.

It was distilled in the Savalle column with the same settings used in the coffey still of the infamous Skeldon distillery.
After the closure of the Skeldon distillery in 1960, this still would be transferred first to Uitvlugt, then to Diamond who finally dismantled it.

The brand is SWR for Sir William Russell who is the original owner of Skeldon 
The refinement was done entirely in Scotland. This selection was bottled in 2022 and consists of 242 specimens.

This fantastic rum has not undergone additions of any kind nor has it undergone filtration processes.

The artwork on the back label is by artist Oscar Isaias Contreras Rojas, as is the Belizean bottling in this collection.
