product Details

El Dorado 1986 25 Year Old Special Reserve

El Dorado has been produced in Guyana at Diamond distillery since 1992. What makes this rum really complex is that four different stills have been involved in its production. These include Enmore and Diamond Coffey stills, Port Mourant double wooden pot still, and Versailles single wooden pot still.

Further, each age statement is not simply an age variance on the same liquid, but comprises a different balance of distillates showcased best at the specific age.

This example is blended from rum exclusively distilled in 1986, and bottled at 25 years old, with many of the casks being filled at the now closed Enmore an Uitvlugt distilleries, home to many of Diamond's stills at the time.
