Planteray Isle of Fiji Rum

Planteray Isle of Fiji is the South Pacific entry in Maison Ferrand's Signature Blends, the core range of the brand formerly sold as Plantation, built around one of the most remote rum sources in the world. The sugarcane is grown in Fiji's volcanic soil and hand-cut, then milled into molasses in the town of Lautoka on the main island, where the distillery runs both pot and column stills. The rum follows Alexandre Gabriel's double-aging model: a first maturation in ex-bourbon casks in Fiji's tropical climate, then a sea voyage to southwest France for a second rest in Ferrand's Cognac casks, with the ocean transit counted as part of the aging since the rum keeps working the wood in the hold. It is bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof). The producer's notes describe molasses and pear on the nose with apple, banana, gooseberry, nutmeg, vanilla and a hint of smoke; a rich, round palate of vanilla fudge, honey, ginger, prune and coconut; and a finish of exotic fruit, raisin, soft spice, a touch of chocolate and a wisp of smoke. Drink it neat, over ice, in a Daiquiri, or in the house Fiji Splash with lime, sugar syrup and coconut water.
