Product Information

They also sell a ton of bulk rum which ends up being released by independent bottlers after being aged in Europe. Aroma: Vůně je vyzrálá, hutná, uhlazeně dubová, se skořicí, dřevitou kořenitostí, pomerančovou marmeládou, k tomu se přidávají i čokoládové pralinky a chvilkami i mentolové aroma (mentolové čokoládové bonbóny). Sadly by 1999 Demerara Distillers Limited was the only remaining active distillery, but their rich history remains here in their El Dorado 15-Year-Old Rum. This rum is laid in oak barrels for at least 15 years and then blended to an extremely high standard.

The British started distilling rum in Guyana in the 17th century and it's one of the country's signature products.Ageing at ambient temperature under tropical climatic conditions contributes crucially to the mellow smoothness of the final spirit, with its complex flavours and rich aromas that make Demerara Rums so unique. El Dorado Special Reserve 15-Year rum is crafted from 15 to 25 year old rums that are then blended and married together in bourbon oak casks.

Established in 1992, the brand has won many awards and fans worldwide, with rums ranging from three to 21 years of age; and the 15 Year Old proving especially popular. Crafted by Demerara Distillers in Guyana, this elegant tipple embodies over three centuries of Caribbean rum-making tradition. In 1999 the merger of ae remaining estates and distillerys left only Demerara Distillers Ltd and they continue to produce rum today. This rum has been laid down in oak barrels for at least 15 years then artfully blended using the Enmore and Diamond Coffey Stills, the Port Mourant Double Wooden Pot Still and the Versailles Single Wooden Pot Still - for you to savour and enjoy. It has a full nose, packed with dark coffee, candied orange, almonds, dark chocolate, pepper, and rich vanilla, with smoky, spicy undertones and high notes of grilled tropical fruit—a smooth, sensual and exotic indulgence.

Demerara Distillers Limited is in a unique position in the world of rum, continuing to operate the original production stills used on three of the great Sugar Estates of the 18th and 19th centuries. It takes the sugary blanket away and reveals more layers of flavours that have been developed during 15 years of ageing. The thing that’s thrown a bit of a shadow over DDL in enthusiast circles is the rumour that they are adding sugar to their rums. El Dorado's home is in the South American country of Guyana and they're situated in Georgetown on the banks of the Demerara River.

Long acknowledged as the Caribbean's premier rum, continuously winning major awards over the past decade, El Dorado 15 Year Old Special Reserve is viewed as a fine, cognac-like rum possessing the most intriguing and complex character in its class. The General Wine Company sources wines from all over the world, but with a particular focus on small, independent producers. All Eldorado rums are made from molasses obtained from Demerara sugar and the Special Reserve is a blend of rums made in Coofey stills and their wooden pot stills all of which have been aged for at least 15 years.El Dorado rums follow the international standard for age statemnts meaning that the age stated on the bottle will be of the youngest rum in the blend so some of it may be much older.
