The Chicago Beverage Testing Institute (BTI) recently awarded DDL gold for its El Dorado three-year-old Cask Aged White Rum.
According to a press release BTI also named it ‘Best White Rum’ and ‘Best Buy.’ Additionally, BTI described it as “rum with excellent depth and character that will make very flavourful cocktails.”
BTI Director and Editor-in-Chief Jerald O’Kennard commended DDL for its consistency in producing fine rums.
The company had also been awarded gold for its world renowned El Dorado brand. “No other distillery has ever achieved the feat of having all of its entries receive points in the ninety’s.
This must surely be a reflection of DDL’s standard of excellence,” O’Kennard said.
