Description
In a nutshell:
A subtlely spicy and tropical 5 year old Barbados rum that undergoes a double cask maturation.
The lowdown:
Smooth, well-balanced, and packed with character, this aged Barbadian golden rum is right on the money. A careful blend of column and pot still spirits brings the perfect mix of richness and refinement, while expert ageing adds depth. Three years in ex-Bourbon casks lay down layers of toasted coconut, fudge, and oaky vanilla before a further two years in ex-Cognac casks in France enhance its complexity. Dried fruits, soft nutmeg, and a wisp of tobacco smoke emerge on the palate, leading to a rich, exotic, and lingering finish.
Aged golden rums like this are superbly versatile - smooth enough to sip neat over ice yet full of depth for cocktails like a Daiquiri or Mai Tai.
The Producer:
Plantation rum is the creation of Alexandre Gabriel owner of Maison Ferrand based in the Cognac region of France. In the 1990s Plantation Rum was launched after Alexandre put together a selection of artisanal rums sourced from across the Caribbean which encompass a broad range of styles, many of which are shipped to France for final maturation and bottling. The other main spirits in their portfolio are Cognac Ferrand and Citadelle Gin.
