About this deal

In Plantation’s case, though, Original Dark feels like it was named less to take advantage of the category’s loose restrictions, and more to simply fill a gap that consumers expected. There’s no unaged rum in this blend, and the company claims its use of caramel coloring is “solely to adjust—if needed—the color between different batches.” This one is a blend of 1-3 year old column and pot still Barbados rum, and (presumably a smaller quantity) of 10-15 year old Jamaican rum, which are “blended into a wooden vat to age for 3-6 months in the southwest of France.” This is the standard Plantation playbook, as rums are moved from tropical aging to blending and secondary aging in France, often in cognac barrels.

In recent months, a slew of new pineapple rums has hit the markets. This style of rum has hit the shelves of hundreds of liquor stores in the country, and it continues to make its way across the globe. This version of Mai Tai includes pineapple rum, pineapple juice, orange juice, lime juice, coconut water, grenadine, orange wedges, and maraschino cherries for garnish. Flavored and spiced rums now make up over 55% of rums sold in the world. Besides pineapple rum, drinkers can also enjoy citrus, raspberry, vanilla, and others. Bar Classics (rad rumov vytvorený s prispením barmanov a barmaniek z celého sveta – ideálne na koktaily): O.F.T.D Overproof 69% (Barbados, Jamajka a Guyana), Stiggins’ Fancy Pineapple (Barbados, Trinidad a Jamajka), White 3 Stars (Barbados, Trinidad a Jamajka), Original Dark (Barbados a Jamajka) Pineapple provides freshness and sharpness that few other fruits can provide. It’s citrusy. It’s tropical. And it is oh-so-good.Some producers are also adamant about only using Victorian-style pineapples. These giant-sized pineapples are the size of a bowling ball. Cognac & Rum: a beautiful blend

Rum s krásnou mahagónovou farbou vonia po klinčekoch, škorici, vanilke a hnedom cukri s dubovými tónmi. Chuť je intenzívna, dominuje karamel, čokoláda, káva, slivky a pomaranče a korenistý nádych klinčekov v kombinácii s karamelizovanými jablkami a pečenými banánmi. To všetko pocítite vtedy ako ho budete dlhšie ochutnávať po malých dávkach. Krátke zhodnotenie Základným rumom značky je prémiový Anniversary 20th X.O. Ten sa dá vlastne nájsť aj v každom väčšom supermarkete. Cena? Približne od 42,90€. Ostatné Plantation rumy by sme však odporúčali kupovať radšej už v overených špecializovaných obchodoch s alkoholom – aj na internete. Takto budete mať dosť času na výber vhodnej fľaše a tiež väčšiu šancu natrafiť aj o dosť výrazne nižšiu cenu v akcii. For a more luxurious sipping experience, Plantation XO 20th Anniversary offers a complex and rich taste at a very reasonable price. As I mentioned previously, XO 20th Anniversary also makes a great rum and coke; maybe not what they had in mind, but trust me, it’s fantastic. Before the success of the Plantation Stiggins’ Fancy, pineapple rum was hardly a real concept. However, that would all change in the coming years, as several new producers started rolling out their own pineapple-inspired rums. So, what’s Pineapple Rum?There’s a little less sugar in this than in a usual daiquiri, to compensate for the sweetness of the rum. Play with the ratios of sugar syrup until you find something to your liking. The lime juice really brings out the tropical notes in the rum.

When the entrepreneurial Frenchman Alexandre Gabriel started the Maison brand, he set his sights on producing premium, quality cognac. Little did he know that he was going to introduce a revolutionary style of rum to the industry. Plantation Barbados 5y je blend pot still a column still barbadoských „bajan“ rumov. Dozrieva najprv v sudoch po bourbone 3 až 4 roky v Karibiku a následne ešte finišuje vo francúzskych ex-koňakových dubových sudoch v Maison Ferrand’s Château 1-2 roky. For additional flavour, in France, it is then re-casked to finish ageing from several months to a couple of years in casks formerly used for cognac. Yummy! Alexandre Gabriel : “At Maison Ferrand, I often feel that we are a team of misfits having fun. With the O.F.T.D. band of rum geeks, I felt at home. I will never forget the special moments we had creating this rum: the secret meeting at Arnaud’s, the week in Cognac, the many samples tasted and the discussions about the true nature of overproof rum spoken with the same gravitas and intensity of statesmen discussing peace treaties. And all the time we were having a ball! These special moments of communion with a talented and passionate team are the reason I love my job.

Our Audience

Though this rum is usually aged in a rum cask, some producers opt for a second aging process in a Cognac cask. Rum from Fiji has been all the rage among the rum geeks in the last few years, so it’s no surprise that Maison Ferrand wanted a piece of that action, if the category were to continue catching on. This is a pretty standard Fijian rum, a blend of pot and column still rums aged tropically for 2-3 years in bourbon casks before the usual 1 year of finishing in Ferrand casks in France. It’s lightly estery, with a moderate level of dosage.
