Exclusive delicando bottling: Plantation Rum Barbados 2014 Single Cask Riversaltes Finish

Plantation Rums have already grown far beyond the status of insider tips in the world of rum. The Plantation Rum Barbados 2014 Single Cask Riversaltes Finish, an exclusive delicando bottling, epitomises the exquisite craftsmanship and deep traditions that make these premium rums so popular.

Obtained from selected raw materials from the Caribbean and South America, these rums are transported to France, where they undergo their final refinement in the historic town of Ars. Here they are aged for several months in discarded oak cognac barrels, a process known as "double ageing", which is deeply rooted in the rum-making tradition of the 18th and 19th centuries.

Plantation Rum Barbados 2014 begins its ageing process with six years in bourbon barrels, which give it an impressive ester content of 87 g/hL. It is then further refined for two years in FERRAND barrels, which harmonises and intensifies its aromas. Finally, it is matured for a year in Riversaltes Wine Casks, which give the rum its unmistakable and characteristic finish. In the year of bottling, 2023, it was finished with a dosage of 8 g/L to emphasise the depth and complexity of its aromas.

This careful and detailed maturation gives the Plantation Rum Barbados 2014 Single Cask Riversaltes Finish an exceptional variety of flavours and an incomparable character that makes it an outstanding representative of its kind. Savour the luxurious taste of this rum, which bridges the gap between historical heritage and contemporary sophistication.
