The Plantation 2006 Panama Single Cask 13yo is an exceptional rum of remarkable quality and complexity, distinguished by its unique Muscat Wine Cask Finish. This rum is a standout in Plantation's esteemed "Single Casks" collection, sourced from the Alcoholes Del Istmo distillery in Panama. The journey of this remarkable spirit begins with the fermentation of molasses over a course of 2 to 3 days. The fermented molasses is then distilled in a 4-column still, resulting in a rum that is both delicate and aromatic.
Post-distillation, the rum undergoes a 10-year maturation process in American oak ex-bourbon barrels under the tropical climate of Panama, allowing it to develop rich and intense flavors. Following this, it is transferred to Cognac Ferrand barrels for an additional 2 years of aging in a continental climate, which adds greater complexity and depth to the spirit. The final stage of maturation involves a 1-year finish in Muscat wine casks, endowing the rum with an extra layer of complexity and a touch of fruitiness.
The intricate aging process and traditional crafting methods employed by Plantation ensure that the unique characteristics of the region are well represented in each bottle. The use of both copper pot stills and column stills, along with the varied aging in oak barrels, imparts the rum with its distinctive personality. The result is a bold yet refined rum with a rich and velvety texture.
In summary, the Plantation 2006 Panama Single Cask 13yo is a truly extraordinary rum that will captivate even the most discerning palates. Its Muscat Wine Cask Finish and multifaceted aging process make it a standout choice in the world of premium rums.
