SINGAPORE - Media OutReach - 7 July 2021 - SPUN Spirits (the "Company") has been appointed the official distributor for the coveted El Dorado rum in Singapore by its producer, Demerara Distillers Limited (the "Distillery" or "DDL").
Demerara Distillers Limited has established a reputation over the last 300 years for producing the world-renowned Demerara Rum. El Dorado, the Distillery's flagship brand, is a winner of many prestigious awards, and is recognised as one of the finest rums internationally.
"We are delighted to add El Dorado to our portfolio," shares Mr Matthew Fergusson-Stewart, Managing Director and co-founder, SPUN Spirits. "We have already made inroads with the brand into the finest bars and hotels in Singapore, and are poised to grow its presence in Singapore and beyond."
El Dorado draws on three centuries of passion and wisdom in Caribbean rum crafting. It is a culmination of time-honoured tradition, modern knowledge and technology, and most importantly, distillation by possibly the oldest and original rum stills left remaining in the world. Since its launch, El Dorado has gone on to produce a range of rums, aging from 3 to 25 years old. Each product is unique, containing their own special blend of rums and a collection of special cask finishes.
