Dillon can trace its history all the way back to 1690 to the original site of the distillery in Fort de France. It was set up by Arthur Dillon, a US soldier.

Cachaca Agua de Arcanjo Prata

Cachaca Agua de Arcanjo Prata Rum Review by the fat rum pirateCachaca Agua de Arcanjo Prata. The first thing you may notice about this Cachaca is the distinctive shaped bottle it comes in. All that will become clear later in the review.

Hailing from Maquine, Rio Grande do Sul this cachaça is available in the distinctive 750ml size bottle. It is available for around 110 R$ in Brasil which equates to just over £20 in sterling. I would expect to see this cachaça retail at around the £35-45 mark if it hits UK shores. Read more to see the fatrumpirate rating

Doorly’s Aged 3 Years Fine Old Barbados Rum

Doorly's Aged 3 Years Fine Old Barbados Rum review by the fat rum pirateDoorly’s Aged 3 Years Fine Old Barbados Rum. The Doorly’s line up should need no introduction to most of you. I’ve reviewed all of their line up that I have been able to get my hands on. I’ve failed thus far to get the Sweden(?) only 6-year-old.

In all honesty I thought I had reviewed this long ago. A quick look revealed that I had completed the tasting notes but had never got around to writing and publishing the rest. Read more to see the fatrumpirate rating
