Plantation
Trinidad 1997 Single Cask 2019
(0.7l,
45.2%*)
*please note that the ABV of this bottle may vary
Plantation Rum is owned by French Cognac producer Maison Ferrand, who control no less than a dozen major brands of premium Spirits and Liqueurs. Ferrand is all about quality — and you can taste it. Plantation Rum is their top shelf Rum label. And mighty good stuff it is, too. They offer a variety of Rums from the Caribbean. Depending on the specific actual plantation and the country of origin, the Rums can vary between soft and aromatic to light and elegant — each one showing the experienced influence of Maison Ferrand.
Trinidad sits at the southeastern edge of the West Indies. Nearly 4300 miles away, Islay sits off the west coast of Scotland in the North Atlantic. Plantation Trinidad 1997 Single Cask 2019 connects these two exotic lands.
Each year, Plantation Rum issues limited edition Rums in their Single Cask series. Each is unique… impossible to recreate. Plantation Trinidad 1997 Single Cask 2019 aged fifteen and a half years in the tropics in ex-Bourbon casks, then another six years in France in Ferrand Cognac casks, and THEN it finished for four months in Kilchoman Peated Islay Whisky casks. If you’re counting, that’s three different casks and nearly twenty-two years. Just imagine the possibilities.

Appearance / Color
Warm Bronze
Nose / Aroma / Smell
The influence of the peated Single Malt greets you first on the nose with notes of smoky brine and earthy peppercorns followed by lemon zest, toffee sauce, and brown butter.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
The palate is complex and alluring with fruit notes jumping over the smokiness — peaches, apricots, stewed pears, Meyer lemon, and passion fruit — followed by espresso, cocoa, vanilla, and malt.
Finish
The finish is long, lightly smoky, and soothing.

Rum is why we measure alcohol proof. To make sure Rum wasn’t watered down, it had to be ‘proven’ by soaking gunpowder with it. If it was ‘overproof’ (higher than 57.15 % vol.), then the gunpowder would ignite, but if it wouldn’t, it was ‘underproof.’
Rum used to be accepted as a form of currency in Europe and Australia, a practice we should probably bring back into fashion.
If the center of our galaxy had a signature scent, it would be Rum. Yup, astronomers studying a giant cloud in the Milky Way found a substance called ethyl formate, a chemical that smells suspiciously like Rum.
Common Rum classifications: White, Golden or Amber, Dark, Spiced, Añejo and Age-Dated Rums.

Mount Gay Rum is the oldest existing Rum company in the World dating back to 1705. This is also the year Guy Fawkes tried to blow up Britain’s Parliament.
