The Most Underrated Rum Brand: Chairman’s Reserve

Поділитися

  • Опубліковано 11 лип 2024
  • Chairman’s Reserve is a brand produced by Saint Lucia Distillers.
    They are bringing to market some of the best rum, and two few consumers recognize the greatness of what they’re doing.
    These are masterfully blended between column and pot-stilled rums and bottled without adulteration.
    If you’ve walked by their bottles on the shelves of a liquor store or away from asking for a taste of your favorite bar, think again!

    I love your videos!! Thank you so much for your information on rum ! Especially the chairman‘s reserve! It’s because of you I own a bottle of the legacy! So delicious 🤤 still trying to figure out what cocktails to mark with it! And I must say I was hesitant to buy the 1931 , but after you said it’s the best rum you ever had 😮 I have to pull the trigger!! Quick question where can you buy that Bounty Rum ? Haven’t been able to find a bottle and how good is it? Thanks again 🎉

      Thank you for watching! It really is so underappreciated. Have you tried the 1931 yet? Let me know when you do!
      Remind me again, where you live. I really can only speak to the southern California market.

    Thanks for speaking to the Admiral Rodney history. Those bottles are a great part of their lineup, sorely in need of a re-brand.

      I think they oughta just retired the admiral and focus on chairman‘s reserve. Have an annual strength release and call it the admiralty or something like that

      Similarly I swear I paid attention but what I heard was “I call them mad scientists because they age their rum in barrels, sometimes more than once” and “they’re always tinkering, that’s why I call them tinkerers.” Did I miss something revealed here about what makes them unique or particularly interesting?

    Thanks for the history lesson. I actually just yesterday got a bottle of CR Legacy which I'm looking forward to tasting. It's my first rum from St. Lucia.

      Alright! I am so excited for you. Please do let me know your thoughts. I LOVE the legacy. Cane juice and molasses combo and makes an amazing mint julep.

    While I agree with the assessment of St. Lucia Distilleries $ Chairman's Reserve, why does this video look like it was filmed on a potato? 2003 called and wants its webcam back.
