Reunion Rum 2004 Plantation Single Calvados Cask Finish 13 Year Old #1 / Bottle nbr. 061. Limited Edition for Denmark Denmark

Launched in 2003, Plantation Rum is a brand owned by the well-established cognac producer, Cognac Ferrand. Established in 1989, Maison Ferrand has used its extensive contacts in the spirits industry to source some exceptional casks of rum. The company also has privileged access to those in the warehouses of Clarendon and Long Pond in Jamaica, through its acquisition of the West India Rum Distillery (WIRD) and the shares in National Rums of Jamaica that came with it. Its ownership of the Bajan WIRD distillery has seen it increasingly involved in rum production as well as bottling in recent years. In June 2020 it was announced that Plantation Rum would be changing its name to support the global dialogue around racial equality, with the company accepting the hurtful connotations that the word “plantation” can evoke.

This is a rhum traditionnel, likely from Savanna. It was distilled from molasses in 2004 and tropically aged in cognac casks for 11 years and continentally in Calvados casks.
