Tasting Notes This commemorative edition of Chairmans Reserve was created in tribute to Laurie Barnard, the Chairman himself, who inspired the brand. While other distilleries were purchasing column stills to increase production, Barnard invested in eclectic barrel types, small pot stills, a proprietary yeast strain, and sugarcane. He believed that the best rum was not achieved from one barrel, but by blending different components together of varying ages, finishes, styles, and base materials. Chairmans Legacy is a blend of pot and column-distilled rum made with both molasses and sugarcane distillate. These rums are aged separately for 56 years in ex-bourbon barrels before blending. Fresh pineapple, banana, and vanilla on the nose transition to intense grilled fruit and spice on the palate with a long finish. 43% Abv |
