Lazy Dodo Single Estate Rum 70cl / 700ml

A Tribute to Mauritius and the Spirit of the Dodo

Lazy Dodo Single Estate Rum is a carefully crafted spirit from the Medine Estate—one of the oldest distilleries in Mauritius. This 70cl bottle showcases the richness of the island’s terroir, where the sugarcane is cultivated, harvested, and distilled all on one estate, ensuring traceability and a consistently high-quality product.

The name “Lazy Dodo” is a playful homage to the legendary extinct bird of Mauritius, representing a laid-back lifestyle and the art of slowing down to enjoy life’s finer moments—like a great glass of rum.

Distinctive, Smooth, and Approachable

Aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels, Lazy Dodo develops a mellow and complex character. The result is a golden-hued rum that balances tropical fruit notes with hints of vanilla, toasted oak, and gentle spice. Whether you’re a seasoned rum drinker or new to sipping spirits, this is a great bottle to explore and enjoy.
