El Dorado Rum 15 Year Old Special Reserve Finest Demerara Rum |
Full nose packed with dark coffee, candied orange, almonds, dark chocolate, pepper and rich vanilla. Beautifully rounded palate with a great spread of flavours: grilled tropical fruit with smooth oaky spice silky, vibrant and moderately full-bodied.
Demerara County, Guyana, has been steeped in the history of sugar and rum production since the 17th century. A hundred years later over 300 sugar estates had their own distillery producing their own signature rums. Through the centuries these estates and distilleries have been amalgamated, but these important marques and the original stills were preserved. Today, Demerara Distillers operates the last remaining distillery in Guyana at Plantation Diamond on the East bank of the Demerara River. Here they have consolidated all the old original stills, marques and traditional skills which make Demerara Rum so distinctive. With its 9 different stills, no other rum distillery in the world offers such a variety and range of over twenty different styles of rum.
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. Perfect for long sipping, straight or on the rocks. A Classic! A combination of specially selected aged rums, some as old as 25 years, from the Enmore and Diamond Coffey stills, the Port Mourant double wooden pot still and the Versailles single wooden pot still, it is blended to perfection and aged in old bourbon oak casks.

Good product bad customer service
This rum is the best ever & was delivered in the best packaging from any online distributor that I've used yet. That being said, your customer service is the worst! Almost immediately, I sent a message to you through the link provided on my order that I wanted to cancel thaw order( I had wanted to change iit, but I couldn't find an option to do that). 4 days later I called your customer service to confirm that the order was canceled before I re-ordered, but I was told that it had already shipped?? A week later I received an email that it had shipped, but then I was receiving emails saying that it was still being packaged. I tried numerous times to reach you to find out what was going on, but it seemed like the answers were computer generated I was getting ready to cancel payment when it arrived, but what a pleasant surprise. I will order from you again, but please get your act together. Thank you.
Well done
Enjoyed the great service and delivery to my doorstep. The communication with the store was fine and the product arrived in about a weeks time. Fair pricing too. Thank you Wine Chateau!
Excellent product - shipping could take a while
Excellent product, as always. My type of rum - dark, smooth and a bit on the sweet side without spices being overwhelming. It does take a while to ship the product - mine took 2 weeks to get it shipped plus 2-3 days for actual delivery. As long as you plan ahead and don't need it tomorrow, it's worth it.
