Westerhall Estate, with roots dating back to the late 18th century, is historically significant in Grenada's rum production. Originally known as the Baccaye Estate, it was renamed by Sir William Johnstone of Scotland. Rum production at Westerhall likely commenced around 1862 with the installation of sugar processing machinery. Today, the distillery continues to uphold its legacy by importing molasses for rum production. The Rum Artesanal Grenada Rum GMWE Cask no.1281 showcases a complex array of aromas and flavors.

While I’m not typically a fan of Spanish-style rums, I must commend Westerhall for their aging technique. This 25-year-old rum is not overly complex but performs its role admirably. The higher proof adds a significant punch, though the pronounced alcohol might deter some. Overall, it offers a great price-to-quality ratio and stands out with its intricate flavors and lingering finish.
