Plantation Original Dark

Plantation Original Dark is a full-bodied Caribbean rum blend crafted from rums distilled in Barbados and Jamaica. Aged in bourbon casks in the tropics and finished in French oak Ferrand Cognac casks, it delivers richness, spice, and a touch of Jamaican funk. It’s a bold, characterful dark rum made for mixing but smooth enough to sip.

Perfect for rum-based cocktails that need depth—this is a go-to for bartenders and home enthusiasts alike.

Aroma
Warm and inviting with notes of molasses, clove, vanilla, ripe banana, and toasted oak. A gentle funk and hint of cocoa give it depth.

Palate
Rich and rounded with flavours of dark caramel, plum, baking spice, roasted coffee, and peppery oak. The finish is long and spiced with lingering sweetness and warmth.

Serving Suggestions
Excellent in a Dark ‘n Stormy, rum old fashioned, or spiced rum punch. Also delicious with cola, ginger beer, or in tiki-style cocktails.
