Cabin boy, get ready, there isn’t one but three Admiral Rodney’s mooring at quay. FYI, George Rodney, a.k.a. Georgie, won the battle of the Saintes in 1782.
Due to my poor nautical vocabulary, I’ll stop using this “anchor tatooed on the arm” style in the rest of this review.
Saint Lucia Distillers (SLD), now the property of the Bernard Hayot group, has expanded its range and has now options for all budgets. Admiral Rodney XO was released in the 80s, so 30 years later this is a new tribute to our beloved admiral, who might get a big head!
Each of these 3 rums has the name of a ship run by Admiral Rodney. Top packaging design, top marketing. Can’t wait to taste them!
