Bundle Chairman's Reserve Legacy + Matusalem Gran Reserva 15
Chairman's Legacy was created and named in honor of Laurie Barnard , the "boss" of the St. Lucia Distillers, who inspired and created the iconic Chairman's Reserve brand. His vision was to rediscover the charm of rum from St. Lucie and bring something that no one has seen in the world of rums for a long time.
And while other distillers bought column stills to increase production, Laurie invested in eclectic types of barrels, small pot distillers, her own yeast strain, and sugar cane. He believed that he would not find the best rum in just one barrel, but could bring it by mixing it from various components including rums of different ages, finish, style and raw material base.
Chairman's Legacy rum is the result of the art of mixing cauldron and column rums. Unlike traditional rums with a molasses base, it also contains a proportion of rum from cane juice as a trademark of Laurie, who began growing sugar cane around the distillery to obtain the now announced Chairman's Reserve yeast.
It matured in tropical climates in bourbon barrels and the resulting mixture was created by mixing several rums 5-8 years old . Let yourself be seduced by its pleasant mahogany shade, behind which hides this protruding rum full of tones of tropical fruit!
Matusalem Gran Reserva 15 is the rum that started it all. Gran Reserva 15 is the embodiment of its founders' dream: to create a rum with enough flavour to bypass trends.
It has lived up to their expectations - throughout Matusalem's 150 years of existence. Gran Reserva 15 has remained the brand's flagship, the original, the icon. A legacy passed down from generation to generation.
Ron Matusalem is still produced using an aging technique called Solera, which was originally used to produce Sherry and Brandy wines. This process, which masterfully selects the best woods and blends, has brought excellence to the exclusive rums of Matusalem to this day.
Gran Reserva 15 was born in Cuba, where it has become an icon of Cuba's golden age. And when you pour yourself a glass, you are transported to an era full of life, joy and culture.
The finest spirits will transport you to new worlds. And from the first sip of Matusalem rum, you'll be transported back in time to Cuba's golden age, an almost mythical period of unparalleled prosperity.
