Plantation 2007 Barbados Cask No. 01 is a masterful creation from the renowned Plantation brand, distilled in 2007 and carefully aged for 12 years in Barbados before being bottled in 2018 at a robust 58.5% ABV. This special rum is a testament to the craftsmanship and rich heritage of Barbados rum-making. When sipped neat, it presents a bold alcoholic profile, but adding a few drops of water transforms it, revealing a creamy mouthfeel with intriguing hints of garage and petrol on the nose. An exquisite blend of apricot, caramel, and tropical fruit aromas greet the senses, while a complex palate offers dry, woody notes accented by brown sugar, spice, and a touch of citrus. The finish is long and satisfying, featuring dry caramel, oak, pineapple, spice, pepper, and a hint of cognac, making it a truly memorable experience for any rum enthusiast.
