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!
