Westerhall Distillery, St. David's
Rum labels
History
The third oldest distillery in Grenada, Westerhall Estates, is owned by the Williams family In their words: "At Westerhall Estate we take pride in maintaining tradition. So we still make our rums the old fashioned way; slowly, carefully, with the skill and knowledge of generations of experience. Time has taught us that you never rush a good rum."
The Westerhall Estate dates from 1800 and is the third oldest distillery in Grenada. Easily reached by minibus, west of St. David's on the south coast road, this 70- acre estate produces sugar cane, cocoa, citrus, bananas, and rum. Privately owned by the Williams family, work was under way to restore this distillery to its original working order when I visited here.
