“It’s distilled in Coffey and Pot stills and then first aged separately before blended and aged for three more years. Total aging is six to eleven years.I think it’s a little bit better than their classic Reserve. In the front of the mouth it doesn’t taste very much, but when you swallow it all flavors arrive and stays there trough the rather long finish.”

“Good rum at a fair price, which scores especially with its background story. Probably not for nerds, but for all who are looking for something above entry level and thereby a characteristic profile. Although significantly thinner and weaker, it still shows a profile of dry and spicy flavors (vA dried fruit), which I have come to know as characteristic of Chairman's.”
