Discover the intriguing Plantation 2009 Trinidad Single Cask, a unique rum from the esteemed Plantation brand. Distilled in 2009 and bottled in 2021, this 700ml bottle boasts an ABV of 45.3%, encapsulating the rich heritage of Trinidad and Tobago. As part of the 2021 Single Cask Edition, this Caribbean rum has undergone a distinctive finish in Belgian Duvel beer barrels, adding a unique twist to its profile. Upon opening, you're greeted with a fresh aroma of citrus, vanilla, and subtle pastry notes, hinting at a delicate complexity. On the palate, the rum is light and smooth, with young wood and malt flavors complemented by vanilla, fruit, and a slight spiciness. However, it reveals a somewhat thin body and lacks the strength some might expect. The finish is brief yet memorable, characterized by bitter hop notes and hints of almond, mirroring the influence of the Duvel beer barrel. While this rum might not captivate those seeking a robust and full-bodied experience, it offers an intriguing exploration of flavor for those open to a lighter, more nuanced profile.

As a rum enthusiast, I find the Plantation 2009 Trinidad Single Cask to be an interesting exploration. Its unique finish in Duvel beer barrels brings a hint of bitterness and complexity that's both refreshing and unconventional. However, the overall lightness and thin body may leave those seeking a more robust experience wanting more. It's a rum that invites curiosity but might not satisfy every palate.
