El Dorado Rum captures author’s attention

Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL) award winning El Dorado rums have spiked the interest of well-known bestselling American author Randy White, who has travelled to Guyana to gain insight as to how El Dorado rums are made and to understand the history of various rums produced by the company.

He was high in praise of the rum, relating that it captured his interest when he tasted it on one of his travels.

“After, I began reading about El Dorado, it’s not just one of the best rums in the American’s; it’s one of the finest rums in the world from this small country… I found the success and brilliance of this product quite interesting,” he stated.

During his four day visit, he will also examine what the country has to offer as an eco-tourism destination. If his visit to the country further captures his interest, White will come back to spend time in Guyana and write about it in an adventure travel magazine he edits.
“I’ve only been here for four hours and I’m already falling in love with the people and the country, it’s an extraordinary country,” he lamented.

This is his first trip to Guyana, White said, noting that he will visit places such as Georgetown, Baganara, Bartica and Parika.
