Plantation Grande Reserve Rum
70cl
Distilled in Barbados and matured in both Barbados and France. The final maturation is done in French Cognac casks which add a touch of exotic spice to the spirit. A very good, easy drinking rum that starts off surprisingly sweet before leading towards more spice and oak influenced flavours.

Tasting Notes from the Producer | |
Aromas (without water) | Beautiful amber gold. A true bajan rum with complex and well-balanced notes of ripe tropical fruits and vanilla, evolving to delicate hints of white peach and coconut. |
Flavour | The palate is warm and complex with 2 different levels of flavors. The double aging creates a first wave of tropical candied fruits leading to voluptuous bourbon vanilla notes, whose richness is perfectly balanced by the fresh fruits and delicate tannins of the second wave. |
