Unleash the bold side of Demerara with El Dorado 2012 High Ester Blend LBI/DHE 11-Year Rum, an experimental, limited-edition release that showcases the power of pot still blending and high ester fermentation. Distilled in 2012 and aged for 11 years in ex-bourbon barrels, this rum combines spirit from the LBI (La Bonne Intention) Savalle still and the DHE (Diamond High Ester) still, resulting in a deeply aromatic, flavor-dense profile built for connoisseurs.
The nose bursts with overripe tropical fruit, grilled pineapple, nail polish esters, and a funky edge reminiscent of Jamaican-style rums. The palate delivers bold notes of burnt sugar, spiced banana, medicinal herbs, and sour cherry balanced by savory oak and a warm, lingering finish that keeps evolving. Bottled at high proof and non-chill filtered, this rum is loud, proud, and unapologetically complex.
For serious collectors and ester-chasers, this is a must-have bridging the line between tradition and innovation in the El Dorado portfolio. Extremely limited availability.
