Portrait: What makes the Planteray Jamaica 10 year old Special Edition special
If you thought rum was just sunburned sugar cane, you haven't heard of the Planteray Jamaica 10 year old Special Edition. This little drop is the result of a Caribbean-French long-distance relationship with a happy ending - and entirely without kitsch.
The molasses for this rum comes from Jamaica, more specifically from two true rum giants: the Clarendon and Long Pond Distilleries. After an extended two-week fermentation (yes, longer than many vacations), the rum is distilled in both a pot still and a column still - traditionally and efficiently, like a pirate with Excel skills.
Then it's aged for eight years in ex-Bourbon Casks (200 liters - no half measures!) in Jamaica. And because France is also known to be quite beautiful, the rum spends another two years there in Ferrand Cognac Casks - at Maison Ferrand, the mastermind behind Planteray.
The best part: The rum contains no added sugar (dosage: 0 g/l). Honest, full of character, but never humorless - practically the James Bond of rums. Only with more molasses and less Martini.
Conclusion: If you love Jamaica, appreciate France, and want to fill your glass with history (instead of syrup), you've come to the right place.
Tasting Notes: This is how the Planteray Jamaica 10 year old Special Edition tastes like
- Nose: intense and multi-layered - a complex interplay of fresh fruit aromas and deep, earthy, and woody nuances - tropical fruits meet a hint of damp forest floor and noble oak
- Palate: A rich interplay of ripe fruit notes unfolds on the palate: Ripe peaches, sweet bananas, and dark plums form the fruity base - toasted walnuts add depth, accompanied by spicy-sweet accents such as cloves, cinnamon, vanilla, and a hint of buttery Pastries
- Finish: Long-lasting and dry with refreshing mint, accompanied by notes of roasted coffee, slightly bitter almonds and a final hint of dark molasses
