Description

Plantation Original Dark Rum

This delicious rum is part of the Plantation Rum Bar Classics, a collection of rums made in consultation with bartenders from across the world. Each of the tasty rums are perfect for making cocktails - and the bartenders should know!

Plantation Original Dark Rum is made using the rich and intense style rums from Jamaica and Barbados, with their notes of plum, banana and vanilla. The Barbados rums have been aged between 1-3 years and the Jamaican Pot Still rum for 10-15 years.  These delicious rums are transported to France where their flavour is enhanced by just the right amount of blending and left to age for another 3-6 months. The result is a structured spiced rum which has a smoky quality that adds texture to finished spirit.

On the nose, there are spicy hints of black peppercorn, clove and cinnamon, with the fruity notes of baked cherry and prunes. The sweet molasses is present and hints of a forest - leaves, black tea and dry stone.

On the palate, the initial frutiness from white raisins and dried pineaplle, makes way for a more spicy and drier taste, finishing with more spice.

Perfect Serve

Dark rum is always good with a ginger mixer, especially in a Dark and Stormy. It's really easy to make - add 50ml rum into a glass with the juice of half a lime and 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters. Top up with 150-200ml ginger beer, give it a gentle stir, garnish with a wedge of lime and enjoy. 

If you like a stronger cocktail, dark rum is fantastic in a Rum Sour. Pour 50ml Plantation Original Dark Rum into a cocktail shaker with ice and add 15ml fresh lemon juice and 15ml simple syrup. Give it a good shake for about 45 seconds and strain into a glass with ice. Add a slice of lemon, a maraschino cherry and a sprig of mint, then enjoy.
