- Aged rum produced by St. Lucia Distillers, Saint Lucia’s last remaining distillery, in Roseau
- Open fermented for 36 hours in concrete tanks using proprietary yeast and water from the Roseau River
- Distilled in a combination of a St. Lucia Distillers’ Coffey column still, “John Dore 2” copper pot still, and Vendome copper hybrid still
- Distillates are aged separately in ex-bourbon barrels for 11 years before they are blended by Chairman’s Reserve head blender Deny Duplessis; the blend is briefly rested in oak before bottling
- A nose of char, menthol, and dry tobacco blossoms on the palate with spiced Bing cherry and a finish of gentian, white flowers, and dark chocolate
- 46% ABV
Distillate from three of St. Lucia Distillers’ stills combine in this unique blend—one of the oldest rums currently available from St Lucia’s last remaining distillery.

"Enticing, concentrated layers of dried stone fruit and funk lead into an intense palate. Apricot jam and baked apple mix with oak, pecan, nutmeg and torched cinnamon, enfolded by a whiff of campfire smoke. Distilled in 2009. — Kara Newman"
