El Dorado Rum 21 Years 0.7L 43%
From sugar producers and colonial rulers
El Dorado Rum 21 Years is a golden rum from the Demerara distillers in South American Guyana and is made from the careful marriage of long-matured individual rums, with the youngest of these rums maturing for at least 21 years in oak barrels and some of the rums it contains may well be considerably older. Guyana used to be a major sugar producer and up to 300 distilleries were built around the sugar mills, producing rum on a large scale for the constantly changing colonial rulers and their fleets. Guyana rum or Demerara rum has always been considered particularly strong and aromatic and was often used in blended rums. On English ships, sailors were also given a daily ration of rum. This was a popular custom that only ended on July 31, 1970, the so-called Black Tot Day, when rum was served on board ships for the last time.
Demerara Rum Distillers
After the decline of the sugar industry due to competition from sugar beet, the number of distilleries in operation also decreased and today only the Demerara Distillers produce rum in Guyana. However, they can draw on a large number of former distilleries from the Enmore Distillery, the Coffey Stills from the Diamond Distillery, the Port Mourant Double Wooden Pot Still and the Versailles Single Wooden Pot Still and are thus able to produce an enormous range of rum styles.
