Characteristics
Chairmans Reserve Legacy, is a rum that pays homage to Laurie Barnard, the "chairman" of Saint Lucia Distillers, who inspired and created the iconic Chairman's Reserve. His name defined and redefined the Saint Lucian rum category, which was unlike anything the rum category had seen before. While other distilleries were buying column stills to increase production, Laurie invested in fine barrel types, small copper pot stills , mages they created themselves and privately owned cane acreage. He believed that the best rum is achieved by blending different barrels and ages. Chairman's Legacy showcases the art of blending rums from both column stills and copper stills. In addition to the molasses-based rums produced by the distillery, Legacy includes the addition of rums made from fresh cane juice from the privately owned land. It is aged 5 to 8 years in ex-Bourbon barrels. The result of all of the above is an exceptional profile with notes of pineapple, banana, vanilla and a long finish of roasted tropical fruits and spices.
