Planteray O.F.T.D. Overproof Rum pays homage to the classic style of Navy rums – robust, full of character and a true testament to craftsmanship. With an alcohol content of 69 % vol., this rum embodies the intensity and richness of flavour that once served as the benchmark of quality for Royal Navy sailors. The name O.F.T.D. officially stands for ‘Old Fashioned Traditional Dark’, but connoisseurs know that it actually traces back to a legendary exclamation from a tasting panel: ‘Oh F* That’s Delicious!’ – a spontaneous expression of pure enthusiasm when the perfect recipe was found.


Behind this extraordinary creation is Alexandre Gabriel, Master Blender and the driving force behind Planteray. Together with six experienced ‘rum veterans’ from around the world – all proven experts in their field – he developed the concept for a genuine, old-school overproof rum. In an intensive process lasting several months, over 1,000 different samples were produced before the final result was decided: a masterful composition of rums from Guyana, Jamaica and Barbados, perfectly balanced to capture the essence of Caribbean distilling.


The Planteray O.F.T.D. is therefore not merely a blend, but a genuine collaboration between seven rum enthusiasts who have poured their passion into every facet of this rum. It combines the depth and molasses notes of Guyana, the robust fruitiness and spice of Jamaica, and the delicate balance and elegance of Barbados. After blending, the rum is aged in French oak casks, which lend it its harmonious structure and warm, sweet-spicy profile.
