Doorly's - 3 Year Old - White Rum | Barbados Rum

The delicious Doorly's rum range is produced in at the Foursquare Distillery in Barbados, and each one features parrots on the label, which is wonderful. While this expression may be a white rum, it was actually aged for three years! After maturation, it spirit was filtered, removing the colour from the liquid, but not the flavour profile. This makes it an excellent tool for bartenders, as it will impart the rich flavours of aged rum without impacting a drink's hue. Handy.

Rum has been produced on the island of Barbados for more than 300 years, but it was not until the 1906 Rum Duty Act was passed that the industry began to develop as we know it today. Prior to this, distillation took place on many of the plantations, but the new law meant the distilleries had to obtain a licence and could sell only in bulk. Hence many of the Bridgetown trading companies became bottlers, including Martin Doorly & Co, and the growth of branded names began. Martin Doorly evolved into Doorly's Macaw Rum, and became the first bottled rum exported from the island. Doorly's rums are still famous throughout the world.
