Plantation 5 Year Barbados Rum 700mL
Plantation 5 Year Barbados Rum is a very fine blend of Barbados rums, aged for five years in bourbon casks in the Caribbean then refined in old French oak casks at Château de Bonbonnet. Its succulent nose, typical of the Barbados style, reveals notes of toasted coconut, fudge and oaky vanilla. Plantation Grande Réserve 5 Year Old can be enjoyed straight, on ice or in cocktails
Plantation Grande Reserve 5 Year Rum is a versatile mixing or sipping rum from Maison Ferrand. Master Blender Alexandre Gabriel utilizes two types of wood containers - ex-bourbon barrels and ex-cognac casks - to develop flavors of vanilla, fudge and toasted coconut. Grande Reserve is a signature blend of Barbados rums that is rich in bourbon flavor. Suave and elegant, this bottle of rum is appropriate for any occasion.

Plantation 5 Year Barbados Rum 700mL40% ABV
Part of the Plantation series -- the brainchild of Alexandre Gabriel, the President of Cognac Ferrand -- the Plantation Original Dark is a stylish blend of young dark rums from Trinidad and Tobago. Hand picked by Gabriel, this blend reflects the light elegance of the rums traditionally produced on the island. The Original Dark, as with all of the Plantation series, reflects Gabriel's underlying philosophy. This is that:"Each rum in the Plantation Rum Collection is made according to its country’s traditional technique and expresses the rum characteristics and flavour of its country of origin."However it is the unique secondary ageing process that sets the Plantation series apart from other rums with each series delivered to the Ferrand Estate after being aged in their country of origin. They are then aged for a short period in small French oak barrels. The end result is a unique taste experience much sought after by lovers of Caribbean rum.
