Chairmans Reserve The Forgotten Casks
On May 2 2007 St Lucia Distillers was struck by a major fire. Mercifully most of the distillery was spared but there were great problems with storage, forcing them to find space for ageing casks in the most unusual places. Having done so, the cellar team had a memory lapse and forgot the casks that had been laid down for award-winning Chairman's reserve. These casks were found recently and upon tasting were found to contain a wonderfully complex rum which has now been offered as a limited release: Chairman's Reserve - The Forgotten Casks, which has already won a gold medal and best in class at the International Wine and Spirit Competition 2011.
MacNair's Exploration Rum Panama 7 Year Old Rum
Located in Central America, Panama’s volcanic soil is the ideal growing environment for the key ingredient in rum-making: sugar cane. This was what drew Master Blender, Billy, to seek out the best rum the country has to offer. Distilled from sugar cane molasses, this exceptional spirit was initially matured in American oak in the tropical Panamanian climate. After being personally selected by Billy, the spirit was transferred to the much cooler environment at the GlenAllachie distillery in Scotland. Once expertly blended, the rum was transformed with secondary maturation in red wine, virgin oak and ex-Bourbon casks for over 2 years, then presented at 46% ABV, with no added colouring or chill filtration.
