Plantation Jamaica 2000 Single Cask is a rare and highly collectable rum, distilled in 2000 and aged for over two decades across two continents. Initially matured in Jamaica’s tropical climate, it was later transferred to France for extended ageing in Ferrand Cognac casks, then finished in a unique single cask to impart exceptional character.
Bottled in very limited quantities, this vintage rum is bold, complex, and unapologetically Jamaican—offering a deep dive into long-aged, high-ester pot still tradition.
Aroma Explosive and exotic with notes of overripe banana, grilled pineapple, varnished oak, and spice-laced treacle. Underlying layers of leather, molasses, and estery funk bring unmistakable Jamaican character.
Palate Intensely flavourful and structured with rich tropical fruit, burnt sugar, dark chocolate, clove, and earthy tobacco. The long finish reveals waves of spice, fruitcake, and old oak, showing remarkable age and depth.
Serving Suggestions Best enjoyed neat in a wide-angled tasting glass. Add a drop of water to explore its evolving aromatics. A contemplative sipper for seasoned rum drinkers.
