Chairman's Reserve Spiced Rum is a Caribbean spiced rum that builds on the distillery's house style by using a matured rum base rather than a neutral or lightly aged spirit. Produced by St. Lucia Distillers, it begins with the same column and pot still rums used in the core range, which are aged in oak before being infused with a blend of natural spices and fruit extracts.
The recipe includes ingredients such as cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, vanilla, citrus peel, and locally sourced bois bandé bark, a botanical native to the Caribbean. These are infused after maturation, allowing the base rum to retain its structure while the added elements shape the overall profile. Unlike many heavily sweetened spiced rums, this expression is designed to keep a clearer link to the underlying rum, reflecting the distillery's broader approach to production. It is positioned as a more traditional and spirit-driven alternative within the spiced rum category.
