Company

This is a collection of bottling produced exclusively for Velier in Italy by Demerara Distillers Ltd (DDL). The casks for each release were specially selected by Velier's Luca Gargano and the bottlings were produced between 2005 and 2014.

The range featured a number of single-marque bottlings that were produced by a variety of Guyana's historic distilleries and stills over the years. Also included in the series were the first bottlings of various blended-in-the-barrel experiments conducted by DDL in the 1990s.
