This excellent El Dorado rum does not refer to a château, but to the Versailles Plantation in Guyana, an 18th-century estate once owned by the French L’Amirault family. An evocative name, perfectly suited to the bright, golden hue of the plantation’s rums! Aged for 12 years in ex-Bourbon oak barrels, this El Dorado Single Still rum was distilled in a truly one-of-a-kind wooden pot still known as “Versailles.” The distillery uses historic stills as a unique signature for its different expressions: Port Mourant, Enmore, and others. In this way, the house keeps the heart of tradition beating in Guyana, a territory nestled between Brazil, Venezuela, and Suriname. On tasting, this rum will greatly appeal to chocolate lovers; the finish is smooth and infused with cigar aromas. EL DORADO - SINGLE STILL - VERSAILLES - 2009 - 70CL - 40°
