Fiji Islands 2019 - 2024 Single Cask Planteray Rum

This unique Planteray Rum was distilled in 2019 in the Fiji Islands and bottled in 2024 as a single cask release after an eye-catching finish in a Coffee Liqueur Cask. The fusion of tropical rum and the rich, sweet notes of coffee liqueur results in an expressive and seductive spirit. Full of character, a little cheeky, and irresistibly aromatic.

Tasting Notes

Nose

The nose is intense and lush, with aromas of freshly ground coffee beans, milk chocolate and dark fruit. Hints of toffee, cinnamon and a subtle smoky touch add depth, while tropical notes of banana and pineapple appear in the background.

Palate

Soft and creamy on the palate, with pronounced flavours of mocha, espresso beans and brown sugar. The coffee liqueur cask influence is unmistakable but beautifully integrated with classic rum notes like dried fruits, clove and vanilla. The texture is rich and velvety.

Finish

The finish is long, warming and silky. Notes of coffee, cocoa and caramel linger, joined by a touch of oak and tropical fruit in the final whispers. A dessert-like rum with depth and flair.

Planteray Rum

Planteray Rum, formerly known as Plantation Rum, is a renowned rum producer focused on creating high-quality rums from all corners of the world. The brand, founded by Alexandre Gabriel, is a pioneer in the use of dual maturation techniques. The rums mature first in their tropical homelands, where they absorb the powerful influences of the local climate, and are then taken to Château de Bonbonnet in France for a second maturation period in French oak barrels. This double maturation creates a unique balance of rich, tropical flavours and refined, complex notes.

Planteray is known for its commitment to quality and craftsmanship. They use only the best sugarcane molasses and traditional distillation techniques. The brand has a wide range of expressions, from light, fruity rums to rich, deeply matured varieties. Praised worldwide for their complexity and depth, Planteray's rums are loved by rum lovers and cocktail connoisseurs alike for their versatility and unique flavour profiles.
