Plantation Isle of Fiji Rum 750 ML

From the pristine lagoons to the lush jungles, Plantation Isle of Fiji is an ode to the beauty of the Fiji Islands. This colourful bottling and delicious rum is Plantation's homage to the Fiji Islands. Distilled from Fijian molasses, it is made using traditional techniques and local Fijian sugar cane, initially aged for around three years in the tropical climate in bourbon casks, before it is sent over to the southwest of France for a secondary maturation in French oak for a year. A spicy, creamy, and tropical affair, and a sure-fire way to taste a sense of place. An excellent sipper, and it certainly stands up to being used in all sorts of cocktails. This double ageing method paired with Fijian know-how creates a rum with warm notes of exotic fruits and raisin. Tasting Notes: Color: Gold. Nose: Intense, it starts on molasses, pear, and varnish. It then becomes fruitier and spicier on apple, banana, and gooseberry, also nutmeg and vanilla with a hint of smoke. Palate: Rich and round, it follows the nose with vanilla fudge, honey, ginger and fruity notes of prune and coconut. Finish: Very long on dried banana, bourbon, and allspice.
