Plantation Panama 12yo 46.2% 700ml is an exquisite rum that embodies the essence of its tropical origin. Aged for 12 years, this rum has been meticulously crafted by Planteray (Plantation) using traditional methods to showcase the full potential of Panamanian terroir. The rum undergoes a unique triple maturation process in Bourbon, Cognac, and Arran Whisky barrels, which imparts an exceptional depth and complexity to its character. On the nose, the bouquet of Plantation Panama 12YO Single Cask reveals notes reminiscent of a fruity and spicy cake. Prominent aromas of baked pear with honey, oranges, and almond greet the senses. The palate is rich, spicy, and dry, with delicate flavors of caramel, apricot, licorice, and vanilla taking center stage. The finish is remarkably long, featuring a hint of saltiness and notes of orange peel and hazelnuts. Plantation rums are created following the traditional methods of their country of origin, allowing each to express its unique heritage impressively. Distillation methods vary depending on the plantation and country, utilizing copper pot stills for soft, aromatic rums or column stills for light and elegant expressions. The rum is distilled from molasses or sugarcane juice in small distilleries before being transferred to oak barrels, often previously used for Bourbon, enhancing their distinctive personality. In the tropical climate of the Caribbean, the rums mature over several years in old cellars warmed by the sun, resulting in full-bodied and intense aromas. Approximately 7% of the liquid naturally evaporates each year through the oak barrels.
