Frequently Asked Questions
What makes El Dorado 12 Year unique?
El Dorado 12 Year is blended from marques produced by the EHP Wooden Coffey and Metal Coffey Stills at the Diamond Distillery — two of the world's most historic distillation vessels. These stills contribute a distinctive esoteric richness and explosive fruit character that sets this rum apart.
How does the 12 Year compare to the 15 and 21 Year expressions?
The 12 Year is the most approachable and fruit-forward of the El Dorado aged range, with a lighter body and brighter tropical fruit profile. The 15 Year adds earthy complexity from the Port Mourant still, while the 21 Year achieves the deepest, most velvety and cognac-like character of the three.
What is Demerara rum?
Demerara rum is produced in the Demerara region of Guyana using molasses from local sugar cane. It is known for its rich, full-bodied character and complex flavors shaped by the tropical aging climate and the region's unique historic distillation equipment.
How should I enjoy it?
Excellent neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails. It shines in a classic Rum Punch, a Dark & Stormy, or a Daiquiri where its fruit-forward character can take center stage.
What size is this bottle?
This expression comes in a 750ml bottle.
