This El Dorado Enmore 2009 rum was produced by DDL (Demerara Distillers Limited) in Guyana. This company owns the Diamond distillery, which now boasts 9 different stills, some of them very famous.
One of these stills is called Enmore or EHP. It is a Coffey-type double column continuous distillation still made of wood. This still was first assembled at the Enmore estate in 1880. It still bears the name of the Enmore Estate sugar plantation and its first owner, Edward Henry Porter (EHP). The still was based on the original design of its Irish inventor, Aeneas Coffey.
With the closure of the distillery in 1994, it was transferred first to Uitvlugt and then to Diamond in 1999.
Here, El Dorado offers a "single still" selection from this unique distillation apparatus. The rum produced in 2009 spent 12 years in ex-bourbon American oak barrels.
