Guyana's Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL) announced the commemoration of the Caribbean Premium League (CPL)'s 10th Anniversary with a special release of its El Dorado Master Blender's 10th Anniversary CPL T20 Rum.

The El Dorado rum brand is the football league's official spirit.

“DDL is extremely pleased to be celebrating 10 years as the official spirit of CPL. For the past 10 years, the popularity of the tournament and our Eldorado brand has grown considerably around the world. Our continued partnership reinforces what a strong Caribbean brand we are and at the same time celebrates the single largest sporting event in the Caribbean.

The harmony between the two brands continues to grow stronger each year as the tournament keeps attracting more fans. Our renewed five-year agreement, which we celebrate today with this special blend, is confirmation of our desire to further market Guyana and the Caribbean region to the rest of the world.”

“El Dorado has been with the Hero Caribbean Premier League from the very beginning and has been a fantastic partner of our tournament over the last 10 years.

We have been very proud to bring the world the Biggest Party in Sport and no party is complete without the fantastic rum that El Dorado produces. We are hugely honoured that they have created this wonderful rum to help us celebrate a decade of the CPL.”
