El Dorado Versailles Cask Strength Single Still Rum 2009

El Dorado Versailles Cask Strength Single Still Rum 2009 is a rare, high‑proof Demerara masterpiece distilled on the historic Versailles Single Wooden Pot Still (VSG)—the last operational wooden pot still of its kind in the world. Bottled at full cask strength, this release delivers the pure, unfiltered intensity of traditional Demerara rum: deep oak, dark cocoa, resinous spice, and the unmistakable aromatic wood signature that defines the Versailles still.

Aged 12 years in ex‑bourbon casks at Guyana’s Diamond Distillery, this vintage expression is part of El Dorado’s Cask Strength Single Still Series, created for collectors and enthusiasts who want the still’s character in its most authentic, undiluted form. Compared to the standard 40% version, the cask strength release is richer, darker, more tannic, and dramatically more expressive, offering a true connoisseur‑level experience.
