Plantation Barbados 5 Year Old Rum – 70cl
Planteray (formerly Plantation) Barbados 5 Year Old is a celebrated dual-aged Bajan rum — initially aged for five years in tropical Caribbean conditions, then finished through additional maturation in French oak Cognac casks at Maison Ferrand in France. The dual-maturation programme delivers refined complexity beyond what either aging environment could produce alone.
Produced by Maison Ferrand in Ars, France — a celebrated Cognac and rum house known for traditional craftsmanship and the signature dual-maturation programme. The Barbados 5 Year Old serves as the entry tier of the celebrated Planteray Bajan range.
From Maison Ferrand / Planteray — a celebrated French Cognac and rum producer.
A definitive aged Caribbean rum — perfect for premium cocktails, refined sipping, or contemplative neat tasting. Serve neat in a tulip glass at room temperature, or as the elevated base in classic rum cocktails.

Surprisingly sweet palate entry, with molasses and hints of leather to the fore, alongside orange rind and salted butter. Allspice.

Becomes very sweet on the finish. A bevy of fiery spices appear on the tail.
