Cuvée presentation

An official small batch of Port Mourant and Diamond distilled in 2001 and bottled for the 70th anniversary of Velier in 2017. Velier was founded in Genoa by Casimir Chaix in 1947. It was originally a small, family-run business specializing in the import and distribution of wine and spirits. Luca Gargano, a former representative for Saint James and serious rum collector and enthusiast, bought the business in 1986 and began bottling whisky first in 1992 and then rum in 1996. After his legendary bottlings of Demerara rum (Guyana) and Caroni (Trinidad), Gargano extended his exploration of Caribbean rum into other territories, including Barbados, Jamaica, Haiti and Marie-Galante. Rums selected by Velier are only ever aged in a tropical climate, which explains both their concentration and the high angels’ share. They are generally bottled at cask strength or just below.

The distillery El Dorado

The El Dorado brand was created by Demerara Distillers in 1992 with the launch of a 15 year old. The company wanted to created its own brand after the rum industry was nationalized by Guyana’s government in 1975. The first editions contained rum from Enmore, Uitvlugt and Diamond, but today everything is produced at Diamond, the last distillery still operating in the country since 2000. The El Dorado brand is now found in rums produced with various stills at Diamond, including the famous Heritage Stills Uitvlugt, Enmore, Port Mourant and Versailles.
