Plantation Pineapple Smoky Formula is a bold reinvention of the original Plantation Pineapple, combining tropical vibrancy with an alluring smoky twist. Ripe Queen Victoria pineapples are infused into Plantation’s award-winning rum, which is then delicately blended with peated single malt whisky casks from Scotland and aged further in ex-peated barrels in the Caribbean. The result is a layered, complex and characterful spirit that bridges the gap between tropical sweetness and smoky sophistication.
Bouquet A captivating nose of grilled pineapple, caramelised sugar, toasted coconut and exotic spices is lifted by a waft of smouldering peat smoke. Subtle notes of clove, cinnamon and charred oak deepen the aromatic intrigue.
Palate Full-bodied and smooth, the palate opens with ripe pineapple, banana, and brown sugar, followed by a savoury, smoky mid-palate reminiscent of mezcal or Islay whisky. Rich molasses and tropical fruit are balanced by warming spice, charred wood and a gentle sea-salt tang. It finishes long, with a deliciously smoky-sweet fade.
Food Pairing Incredible neat or over a single cube of ice. Pairs brilliantly with flame-grilled pork belly, jerk chicken, or sticky tamarind-glazed ribs. For a standout cocktail, try it in a smoky Daiquiri or a next-level Piña Colada.
Cellaring Best enjoyed fresh to preserve its bold tropical aromatics and smoky edge, though it will hold well over time once opened.
