Chairman's Reserve Original Rum in a Nutshell

"Chairman's Reserve Original is a versatile rum. It has notes of baked banana and spice that works well in more complex stirred drinks."

Let's Answer Your Questions About Chairman's Reserve Original Rum

Where is Chairman's Reserve Original Rum from?

Chairman's Reserve Original Rum hails from St. Lucia, a product of St. Lucia Distillers, the last remaining distillery on the island. Its origin story began in 1999 when the then Chairman, Laurie Barnard, created it by blending rums from both Coffey column stills and copper pot stills, a practice that continues today. This approach, along with aging the rums separately before blending and then allowing them to marry further, has become a hallmark of the brand, known for producing balanced and complex craft spirits. It's considered a modern classic, embodying the distillery's commitment to quality and innovative blending techniques.

How should I use Chairman's Reserve Original Rum?

Chairman's Reserve Original Rum, a blend of pot and column still rums from St. Lucia, brings rich notes of caramelized fruit, sweet raisin, tobacco, and a hint of spice to your home bar. This spirit truly comes alive in classic rum cocktails, think Mai Tais or a well-made Daiquiri, providing a robust and flavorful foundation.

What does Chairman's Reserve Original Rum taste like?

Prepare for an inviting bouquet of caramelized banana, sweet raisins, and a hint of vanilla. The initial sip delivers a pleasing warmth, revealing notes of tropical fruit, perhaps some mango, complemented by honey and a touch of tobacco. It all culminates in a wonderfully long and creamy finish with lingering notes of soft spice and dark chocolate.
