Plantation Rum Barbados Extra Old 20th Anniversary 0,7L 40% inkl. 2 Gläser

Plantation Rum Barbados Grande Reserve 5 years, 0.7 L, 40% Grande Champagne Cognac The story of Plantation Rum begins in France. More precisely in the Grande Champagne in Cognac. There, the Cognac-Haus Ferrand has been producing high-quality cognac according to old traditions and from the best base wines since 1776. After the entrepreneur and spirits connoisseur Alexandre Gabriel joined the company in 1989, the business was fundamentally revitalized. The partly antiquated distilleries were renewed and are now among the most modern in the entire region. However, it was always important to M Gabriel to maintain the old and very traditional distillation methods. From Cognac to Rum But what does rum have to do with Cognac? Very simple: M Gabriel has been selling used Cognac barrels to the Caribbean for years. There, the barrels are used to mature the rum and thus give it a special aroma. Over the years, these business relationships have also led to good private contacts in the Caribbean. Due to his friendships with the master distillers of the Caribbean, Alexandre Gabriel was able to try very rare distillates, some of which were only distilled for the cellar masters' private use. However, M Gabriel would not be a businessman if he had not managed to buy some of these special barrels and have them delivered to Cognac. They are now stored in the modern cellars of Cognac Ferrand and are bottled when the house's master blender deems it appropriate. A treasure of the Caribbean All rums bottled under the "Plantation" label are pearls of the Caribbean. Unique in taste and a wonderful introduction to the great potential and traditions of Caribbean rum. This five-year-old Grande Reserve rum comes, as the name suggests, from Barbados. It is a cuvée of the best Barbados rums that matured for five years in the best bourbon barrels in the Caribbean. They were then further matured in oak cognac barrels in France. On the nose and palate, the rum presents itself with opulent and delicate notes of banana, coconut, toffee and vanilla. The aftertaste is soft and full-bodied. The rum remains in the mouth with a beautiful sweetness. Perfect for exclusive cocktails or for pure enjoyment. Recommended!

Plantation Rum Barbados Grande Reserve, 0.7 L, 40% The history of Plantation Rum The history of Plantation Rum is closely linked to the French cognac producer Pierre Ferrand. The Ferrand cognac house has been producing high-quality, traditionally produced cognac since 1776 and has also built up a good reputation across the region. Pierre Ferrand has been particularly popular in the cocktail scene in recent years, as the company has given the industry new impetus with products such as the Pierre Ferrand Triple Sec Dry Curacao. This is largely due to the work of one man - Alexandre Gabriel. The French entrepreneur and spirits connoisseur joined the Pierre Ferrand company in 1989 and fundamentally revitalized the business. Gabriel not only ensured that the partly antiquated distilleries were replaced with very modern, but traditionally operated systems, but also sensibly expanded the company's portfolio. As is common in the Cognac region, Alexandre Gabriel also sold the used Cognac barrels so that manufacturers of other spirits could mature their spirits in them. Many of these barrels went to rum producers in the Caribbean and, due to the years of business relationships, close friendships developed that enabled Alexandre Gabriel to import some very rare barrels of rum to France. This was the birth of Plantation Rum! The rums bottled under the name Plantation Rum mature in the cellars of Pierre Ferrand Cognac and are blended and bottled depending on their country of origin. For all Plantation Rums, Pierre Ferrand's cellar masters ensure that they are bottled at the right time. That is, when the cellar master considers the respective Plantation Rum to be mature. The production of the Plantation Rum Barbados Grande Reserve As the name suggests, the Plantation Rum Barbados Grande Reserve is produced in Barbados in small copper pot stills.

Plantation Rum Peru 2006 One Time Limited Edition 0.7L 47.9% Plantation Peru After the fantastic Plantation Barbados was released in 2011, there is only one new product in the One time limited edition series. It is a rum from Peru. Here, too, a collaboration was entered into with local master blenders, more precisely Jorge Luis Rodriquez Parajes, the master blender of the Cartavio Rum Company from Peru. A blend of two different types of distillery was chosen. One part of the rum was produced in a 'John Dore' pot still, another part was produced in a column still before the two were married together. Most of the time, i.e. the 'main maturation' took place in Peru in ex-bourbon barrels. However, since a special edition is usually also subjected to a finish, this was also done with the Plantation Peru. For this, the rum was brought back to Maison Ferrand in Freikreich. The rum was allowed to mature there for another three years in ex-Ferrand cognac barrels. The first notes on the nose are of dark chocolate, vanilla and subtle wood aromas. On the palate it is very soft and gentle, aromas such as chocolate and vanilla can be recognized here along with hints of passion fruit. In the finish, further fruity notes and the aroma of roasted nuts and cinnamon are added.
