- Blended & aged Demerara rum produced by Demerara Distillers Limited, the last remaining distillery in Guyana
- Blend of column and pot still rums distilled from molasses in DDL’s heritage French Savalle still, Port Mourant still (PM), Enmore wooden Coffey still (EHP), and double Coffey still (SVW)
- Aged minimum 8 years in ex-bourbon casks
- The nose perfectly balances fruit and confection, displaying tobacco, clove, and dried cherry; a soft and silky palate of toffee, ginger, and stewed red fruit; clove, charred oak, and butterscotch on a dry, spicy finish
- 40% ABV
Created by DDL’s Master Blender, Sharon Sue-Hang-Baksh, this expression is markedly drier than the aged expressions preceding it, leaning into the smoky, mineralic profile that define El Dorado’s extra aged Special Reserve bottlings. Use this to add jammy fruit and a whisp of smoke to any cocktail, or simply enjoy it neat or over ice.

Tasting Notes
El Dorado Cask Aged 8 Year Rum is a blended, aged Demerara rum produced by Demerara Distillers Limited, the last remaining distillery in Guyana. Composed of a blend of column and pot still rums distilled from molasses in DDL’s heritage French Savalle still, Port Mourant still (PM), Enmore wooden Coffey still (EHP), and double Coffey still (SVW), this rum is aged for a minimum of 8 years in ex-bourbon casks.
Created by DDL’s Master Blender, Sharon Sue-Hang-Baksh, this expression is markedly drier than the aged expressions preceding it, leaning into the smoky, mineralic profile that defines El Dorado’s extra aged Special Reserve bottlings. The nose perfectly balances fruit and confection, displaying tobacco, clove, and dried cherry which transition to a soft and silky palate of toffee, ginger, and stewed red fruit. Clove, charred oak, and butterscotch assert themselves on a dry, spicy finish. Use this to add jammy fruit and a whisp of smoke to any cocktail, or simply enjoy it neat or over ice. 40% ABV.
