I've been there after Katrina. Not sure about the owner change, but true, they were in a tough spot. IIRC, they had 9-11 feet of water in distillery pretty much taking out the entire first floor. Luckily they stored their rum in the rafters and it was untouched. That brought about the special edition 10 year old rum, which was their 8 year that got a couple extra years of aging.

I used to keep up with that but haven't seen it in awhile, thanks for putting it back in front of me! His reviews are great, but I really like the side-by-side comparisons.

I'm also a big fan of El Dorado rum...it's great value for the quality.

Been through a few bottle of the 12 myself, and tried the 15. Good stuff, and especially at the price. Not too much more than what I prefer to have on hand for mixers.
