Unique “Blended in the Barrel” series from El Dorado Rum:
The traditional way of blending at Demerara Distillers is “blending after aging.” Hereby the rum first ripens in the barrel, before being mixed into a beautiful rum by the Master Blender. In contrast to this traditional way, the “Blended in the Barrel” range offers a unique opportunity to experience a non-traditional way of blending. The individual marques are in fact mixed immediately after distillation and also matured as a blend. All four different expressions are aged in ex-Bourbon barrels under tropical conditions in the Demerara warehouses in Guyana. Bottling for barrel strength is also done in Guyana. This unique series is filtered non-chill to preserve all unique and individual flavor profiles as much as possible.
Rum Marques:
The Demerara Distillers distillery uses a number of unique historical stills, all of which originate from various sugar plantations in Guyana. With these historical stills, Demerara Distillers is one of the few producers of rum that has the distinctive capacity to create unique rums and to provide them with different rum marques (types). The four different expressions in the “Blended in the Barrel” series are all based on individual rum marques from these different historical stills.
