Demerara Distillers of Guyana produces El Dorado 12-year rum and is the country's last remaining distillery, with origins tracing back to 1670. The name ""El Dorado"" references the legendary city of gold that is said to be in the country's Rupununi region.

I've been trying to find my preferred tipple by working my way through rums, by both rating and popularity and keep coming back to the ED 12 year old. There are, of course, better rums on the market, but you need to spend much more for just a slight increase in quality. The ED 12 is often compared with the ED 15, which is certainly smoother, but for me, it lacks the bite of the 12 year old.
