About El Dorado 15 Year Old Rum
El Dorado Rum is made from fresh, raw sugar cane cultivated in Guyana’s rich, alluvial soil. After the sugar cane has been harvested by hand, it is transported back to Demerara Distillery by barge. There, the molasses is fermented with a proprietary strain of yeast specifically designed to control the Brix of the wash (Brix is the measure of dissolved solids in a solution). Following fermentation, the rum is distilled through Demerara Distillers’ antique wooden and copper stills (the stills, which are up two centuries old, were used when the country was still a settlement).
El Dorado 15 Year Old Rum is matured in bespoke, 45-gallon American oak casks for a minimum of twelve years. The hand-coopered barrels are allowed to mature in a custom-built warehouse, where Guyana’s intense heat and tropical climate forces the rum and wood to mingle.
El Dorado 15 Year Old Special Reserve is a combination of specially selected rums aged up to 25 years. These selected rums are distilled in Enmore and Diamond Coffey stills, the Port Mourant double wooden pot still and the Versailles single wooden pot still before being blended to perfection and aged in old bourbon oak casks. El Dorado 15 Year Old Special Reserve has won continuous major awards over the past decade, possessing the most intriguing and complex character in its class. Perfect for long sipping, straight or on the rocks.

About El Dorado
Situated along the northern coast of South America, Guyana was colonized by the Netherlands in the early 17th century. Much like other European countries at the time, the Dutch used their settlement’s tropical climate — Guyana enjoys an average temperature of up to 89.6° F and up to 137.8 inches of rain annually — as a source of raw, fresh ingredients that were unable to be harvested on the European continent.
In 1658, Guyana began exporting sugar back to the Netherlands and within a decade, farmer’s along the Demerara River began distilling their excess cane sugar into rum. By the turn of the century, the tiny Caribbean country had over 300 unique distilleries. Today, Demerara Distillers Co. — the last remaining rum distillery in the country — pays homage to Guyana’s rich tradition of distilling fine rum with El Dorado 12 Year Old Rum.
About Rum
Rum history allegedly started in the Carribiens in the 17th century when they started to ferment and distill molasses, a byproduct of sugar production. Most of the Rum is aged in oak or ex-wine casks, giving its color and flavor.
We distinguish between 4 different Rum categories, where white or unaged rum is mainly used in cocktails, while dark, spiced, and añejo (aged) rum are mostly enjoyed neat.
