Initially installed in Venezuela in Angostura now Ciudad Bolivar, the activities are transferred by the sons to Trinidad and start producing rum. In 1949, their uncle built a new unit to design high-quality rums. The company’s properties yeasts are still in use today. the distillery was transferred to the Laventille distillery next to Port of Spain, the company’s headquarters in the 1970s. Benefiting from successive upgrades, the site produces around 50 million litres annually. The molasses come from various countries of South America, and are distilled in different stills with multiple ironing. The juices are aged almost exclusively in ex-bourbon barrels.
