Duncan Taylor & Company has been “laying down” casks from premium Scottish distilleries and Rum producers for decades. Only in recent years, have they made their products available to consumers. Their origin is in Glasgow where the company was initially a merchant and broker of Scotch Whisky casks within the Industry. Devotion to the principle of providing only the finest casks to be filled at Scotland’s leading distilleries has been a key feature of the company’s history.
When the company moved its headquarters to the North East of Scotland, they decided to sell directly to consumers and to cease the “brokering” of whisky in cask form to Distillery companies and Independent bottlers.
They also purchase Caribbean rum in cask and age it in the cool and damp of Scotland, to extraordinary effect. This spirit is a Demerara rum from one of the most historic stills in Guyana. There has been a great consolidation of rum production in Guyana. From over 300 distilleries a hundred years ago, now there is just one rum company. Rum from, now closed, Dutch-owned Uitvlugt Estate was always marked ICBU. The still from that estate is now owned by the one remaining distiller and it is still in production. It has always been considered among the best Guyanese Rum.
We are thrilled to present this bottle to you tonight! We will open one bottle at 6:30 precisely. When it's gone, it's gone.
