Planteray Barbados 2018 / 50.5% / 0.7l
- For those who believe that real rum does not age, but evolves. This bottle is a gateway to time travel.
Product description
This single vintage rum is a unique bottle that transports connoisseurs to the climate of Barbados in 2018 – a year of exceptional sunshine and stable sugar cane harvests. The dry period gave the cane an intense concentration of sweetness and acidity. This edition is made from selected distillates from the Foursquare distillery column still, aged for 5 years in oak barrels ex-bourbon and sherry, and then an additional 12 months in wine barrels from Madeira – in homage to the tradition of sea routes. Final aging in fortified wine barrels adds an exotic depth – notes of dried figs and walnut.
