The Plantation 2009 Fiji Islands Kilchoman Finish is a unique, limited release rum produced at the Rum Co. of Fiji distillery and bottled by the renowned independent bottler, Maison Ferrand. Distilled in 2009 from molasses and bottled in 2020, this exquisite rum boasts an ABV of 49.6% and is presented in a 700ml bottle. Only 144 bottles were made, making it a true collector's item. This rum is characterized by a smoky and woody aroma complemented by tropical fruit, peat, and roasted notes due to its unique finishing process. The double aging process involves initial maturation in an ex-bourbon cask for eight and a half years in Fiji, followed by two years in a Ferrand cask in France, and then a final six-month finish in a Kilchoman peated whisky cask. This intricate aging lends the rum a distinctive flavor profile with prominent woody, whiskey, peat, smoky, and dry elements. The Kilchoman finish adds a layer of complexity that resonates with both rum and whiskey enthusiasts. RumX users appreciate the double aging, unique blend of flavors, and the long finish that challenges the boundaries of traditional rum. Ideal for expanding your collection and impressing whiskey-drinking friends, this limited edition rum is a must-have for connoisseurs.
