Chairman’s Reserve Legacy Rum
Chairman's Reserve presents a special bottling in honour of founder Laurie Bernard, showcasing his dedication and enthusiasm for exceptional rum. Bernard's vision drove St Lucia Distillers to enhance their equipment and explore new rum-making possibilities. They introduced pot stills alongside their column stills, replanted dormant sugar cane fields to produce estate-grown sugar, and initiated the art of blending their diverse rums to cultivate greater character and complexity. Thus, the esteemed Chairman's Reserve brand was established. This expression is a blend of column and pot still molasses-based rums, combined with estate-grown sugar cane rum, embodying Laurie Bernard's vision. It offers flavours of butterscotch, dark berries, and sultanas with undertones of spicy oak, tobacco, pine, and nutmeg. The finish presents bananas with vanilla caramel sauce, charred pineapple with burnt brown sugar, and a touch of spice.
Don Papa Single Island Rum
Don Papa Single Island Rum is crafted on the island of Negros in the Philippines, where the rich volcanic soil produces exceptionally sweet, high‑quality sugarcane. Distilled from molasses and aged in American oak, it’s known for its smooth, rounded character and dessert‑like flavour profile that appeals to both rum newcomers and seasoned drinkers. On the nose, it offers generous aromas of vanilla, caramel and candied citrus, with a touch of tropical fruit. The palate is soft and indulgent, opening with notes of toffee, honey and warm spice before developing hints of dried fruit and cocoa. A gentle sweetness carries through to the finish, leaving lingering flavours of vanilla and lightly toasted oak. A crowd‑pleasing, easy‑drinking rum with a distinctive island style, perfect for sipping neat, mixing into rich cocktails or pairing with desserts.
