South Pacific Plantation Fiji Single Cask - Aquavit Cask Finish 2011

For curious explorers who enjoy characterful rums: Fiji pot still with an aquavit cask twist. Expect salty tropical fruit, light smoke, spice and a slightly sweet, dry-leaning finish. A niche but appreciated experiment on RumX.

  • Salty tropical fruit

This rather odd finish works surprisingly well. Like it.

The nose invites you into floral and fruity aromas. The aquavit is present but gentle. Beautiful roundness and balance. On the palate, the sweetness of Fiji is present at first. The aquavit tempers the Fiji and the spiciness comes in at the end. The finish is medium to long, with a touch of astringency at the very end. A rum that may destabilize, but which brings a pleasant curiosity. To be savored.

A rather average Fiji rum. The One Time Limited 2005 from Plantation is fruitier and altogether more complex and significantly better.

Brand

Planteray 

Avg Rating 7.5/10 over 760 Rums

Planteray is the rum range Maison Ferrand renamed from Plantation in 2024. It is double-aged: distilled in the Caribbean, largely on Barbados at the historic West Indies Rum Distillery, then finished in France in ex-cognac casks, which gives the house style its rounded, polished character. Built by Alexandre Gabriel to make fine rum approachable, it runs from the flagship XO 20th Anniversary to a deep tail of high-ester and single-cask bottlings.
