Chairman's Reserve Original Gold Rum - 70cl

PROUDLY SAINT LUCIAN!: Chairman's Reserve is Saint Lucia's premier rum and the global icon brand within St. Lucia Distillers. Created by the mid-1990's and perfected under the watchful eye of Laurie Barnard, Chairman of the unique distillery of the carribean island, Chairman's Reserve is nowadays enjoyed all over the world.FINEST SAINT LUCIA RUM  : A fine quality rum that can represent the iconic style of St.Lucian rum. As a simple line of distinction, Chairman's Reserve Original starts with selected aged rums of both Coffey Column stills and copper pot stills, married together after maturation, and then re-entered into oak for blending and final finishing. The end result has become the flagship St. Lucian rum known for its harmonious well-rounded finess and style with tremendous character. Best enjoyed Neat or in Cocktail.THE ART OF BLENDING : Laurie Barnard, the inovative Chairman behind the brand Chairman's Reserve, drove the idea of having a diversity of rums from different stills and aged in contrasting woods so that the blender would have a palate of maturates from which to create a great rum.  By 1999 these elements were in place and the launch of a new rum – Chairman’s Reserve, Finest St. Lucia Rum – heralded the beginning of a new adventure of bringing premium Saint Lucian rum to the world.TASTING NOTES : Rich dark amber in color, typical pot still richness comes through the aromas carried by whiffs of cooked, banana, caramelized fruits and spicy oak derived vanilla.  A well balanced mid-palate provides structure around flavors of chocolate, golden raisin, tobacco and clove, which dissipates over a long creamy finish. CHAIRMAN'S RESERVE MAI TAI :  Ingredients: 1 oz.
