Since its acquisition by the Bernard Hayot Group in 2016, the family-owned group has, in 2021, inaugurated three new buildings designed to extend ageing capability on the distillery to greater than 12,000 casks.
CEO Margaret Monplaisir stated: “Laurie Barnard who helmed St. Lucia Distillers from 1988 to 2012, can be pleased with latest developments. The prevailing rum tour was began in 1998 and is now coming into one other section”.
In 2021, the distillery dwelling for Chairman’s Reserve, Admiral Rodney and Bounty rums, exported over 600,000 bottles to 45 nations around the globe, with the brand new growth anticipated to triple that in coming years.
Present chairman Grégoire Gueden added: “This new attraction is designed to be like no different rum tour within the area.”
