El Dorado Master Blender’s Special Edition 13-Year-Old Rum
Kaieteur News – Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL), through its El Dorado brand, has unveiled its latest limited-edition release: the El Dorado Master Blender 13-Year-Old Rum, celebrating 13 remarkable years as the Official Spirit of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL).
In a statement, DDL said that the “commemorative rum” is a unique blend of marques from DDL’s heritage stills — the Uitvlugt French Savalle Still, Diamond Coffey Still, and the Port Mourant Double Wooden Pot Still.
“Aged for a least 13 years in American oak casks previously used to mature bourbon, the 2025 El Dorado Master Blender’s Special Edition Rum is one of notable depth and character. This rum offers an abundance of fruity and honeyed aromas, with a silky-smooth finish and a touch of butterscotch on the palate, making it a true celebration of Caribbean craftsmanship and cricketing spirit.
DDL’s Chairman Komal Samaroo noted: “We’re proud to celebrate 13 years as the Official Spirit of CPL T20 with the launch of this special edition rum. This rum not only commemorates our journey with CPL, but it reflects our dedication to heritage, tradition, and the shared joy of cricket. It brings together the finest expressions from our heritage stills and ageing process to honour a partnership rooted in Caribbean pride and craftsmanship. We look forward to continuing this spirited journey with CPL and the fans who make it unforgettable year after year.”
The El Dorado Master Blender’s Special Edition 13-Year-Old Rum is now available for sale at local retail outlets countrywide and all Duty-Free Shops.
