Plantation Xaymaca Special Dry
Plantation Xaymaca Special Dry is a return to the roots of Jamaican rum, showcasing all its funky, aromatic glory. This rum is a blend of 100% pot still rums from the iconic Long Pond and Clarendon distilleries. The result is a dry, bold expression full of esters and tropical energy. Xaymaca (the original Taíno name for Jamaica) revives the island’s traditional rum style – intense, spicy and full of life – perfect for fans of characterful, authentic rums.
Tasting Notes
Nose
The nose is bold and vibrant, with aromas of overripe banana, pineapple, green apple and a hint of olive. Beneath it lie notes of freshly baked bread, black pepper and a subtle minerality. Funky, yet refined.
Palate
Immediately dry and powerful on the palate, with flavours of grilled tropical fruit, citrus zest and a touch of spicy ginger. The structure is robust, with earthy notes, a trace of smoke and a refined bitterness. This rum proudly shows its pot still character.
Finish
The finish is long, dry and spicy. Notes of charred wood, pepper, ripe banana and a touch of liquorice linger on. A complex and honest ending to a pure Jamaican experience.
Plantation Rum
Plantation Rum is a well-known and respected brand name in the world of rum, owned by Maison Ferrand, a French company that also produces other spirits such as cognac and gin. The name "Plantation" refers to the traditional sugar cane plantations where rum was originally produced. Under the leadership of Alexandre Gabriel, who has run the company since the 1990s, Plantation Rum has developed into one of the leading brands in the premium rum category.
One of Plantation Rum's distinguishing features is the use of a double maturation technique. After the first maturation in the tropics, the rum is transported to France, where it undergoes a second maturation in former cognac barrels at Maison Ferrand. This double maturation adds complexity and depth to the rum's flavour profiles. Planteray is an alternative brand name used by Maison Ferrand from 2024 to adapt their branding to modern sensibilities. The content and craftsmanship remain the same, while maintaining an emphasis on quality and authenticity.
