Old Brothers MLC 2001-2021 (61.3%)
Do you know the exact signification of MLC? Monymusk Light Continental, eh that’s quite contradictory with those 18 years under the tropics, right? But we’ve the same sh*t with some Hampden such as Habitation Velier C<>H for example. Anyway we’re not here to talk about letters, we’re only interested in what’s inside the bottle!

St Lucia doesn’t really take part as one of most common rums bottled as single casks, but it’s not uninteresting however.

That’s what we call a featuring. Old Brothers worked with Joey Starr to make a Mauritian blend from the New Grove distillery.
