Plantation Rum Jamaica 2009 750ml

Plantation Jamaica 2009 is a single-cask vintage rum from Planteray (formerly branded Plantation), the négociant house known for sourcing rum from single distilleries across the Caribbean and finishing it in French oak. This bottling comes from the 2009 vintage out of Jamaica, a country whose pot-still rum is known for high-ester, funky, tropical-fruit intensity that separates it from lighter column-still styles. Expect ripe tropical fruit, funk and baking spice from the Jamaican pot-still character, layered with the oak and vanilla the house's finishing process typically adds. It's a collector's single-cask bottling rather than an everyday sipper.

How to drink Plantation Jamaica 2009

Sip it neat to catch the full funky, high-ester Jamaican character — this is a rum for tasting, not for burying under mixers. A single large cube is fine if you want it slightly opened up.
