100% Vendome with fresh nose with mint and some wood. Super smooth mouth feel and flavourful and balanced body with vanilla, glue, acetone and white sugar. It’s got a great long finish with stays with you and is just asking to be enjoyed. Great rum and classic example of what I enjoy about SLD

For me, one of the best St.Lucias. Despite the long storage it has not lost the fruitiness!

Saint Lucia Distillers 

Avg Rating 8.2/10 240 Rums

St. Lucia Distillers is the island's only distillery and one of the most versatile in the Caribbean. Four stills give it eight different distillates, molasses and cane juice, pot and column, which its blenders turn into everything from the humble Bounty to the cult Chairman's Reserve and the super-premium Admiral Rodney. It rebuilt itself after an arson fire and is now owned by the same group as Martinique's J.M and Clement.
