Chairman's Reserve Spiced Rum, 70 cl

Chairman's Reserve Spiced Rum is the latest addition to St. Lucia Distiller's portfolio of world class rums. The rum contains local spices and fruits including cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, vanilla, coconut, all spice, lemon and orange. We have also added Richeria Grandis - known locally as 'Bois Bande' - a bark renowned in the Caribbean as a potent aphrodisiac to give an added kick to the rum. These spices and fruits are added to rums distilled in copper alembic pot and continuous stills that are then aged in Kentucky Bourbon barrels to give a complex and balanced spice rum. Chairman's Reserve Spice benefits from a combination of steeping certain spices and Bois Bande in the rum for up to a year while the other ingredients are added during the blending process. In this way they can bring out the flavour of the spices and fruits while preserving the complexity and harmony of the underlying rum.

Product Description

Whilst they are based on gorgeous St Lucia, Chairman's Reserve sources molasses from British Guyana. Rather than ignoring local sugar producers, this arrangement was in fact brought about by the demise of sugar plantations on the island in the 1960s. In creating their Rums Chairman's Reserve store their stocks in numerous styles of vats and barrels and employ a range of yeast strains. All of this ensures bags of flavour, character and variety. Heartily recommended.
