THE 2020 VINTAGES COLLECTION<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In honor of their exceptional character, the bottles of the Plantation \u00abterroir\u00bb rum collection are now decorated with special labels worthy of the uniqueness
\nof each vintage and each country of origin. For the 2020 editions, local birds brighten the labels with their colorful feathers. These exotic images, evoking the iconic illustrations of the Comte de Buffon, are a real treat for the eye.<\/p>\n

PLANTATION\u2019S \u201cFOUR-HANDS\u201d PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The \u201cFour-Hands\u201d program exemplifies the philosophy at the heart of the brand: the essential preservation of rum cultures and their traditions.
\nOur vintage rums are the fruit of inspired collaboration between Alexandre and passionate distillers, who work together to select and blend the barrels that will form an ideal unison. Like pianists, they share a keyboard to perform a duet. The goal: To bring out a product\u2019s finest elements and create perfect harmony.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u2014 Trinidad 2009 \u2014<\/h3>\n

Limited to just 24 casks, the exclusive Trinidad 2009 expression was chosen from the cellars of Trinidad Distillers Limited by Alexandre Gabriel, Plantation Rum\u2019s Master Blender, and Andrew Hassell, General Manager and rum historian at West Indies Rum Distillery. The next destination is already very eagerly awaited.<\/p>\n

Continuously distilled in multi-column stills, Plantation Trinidad 2009 also stands out for its maturation process. This new limited edition benefited from a signature double ageing process inspired by a 300-year-old technique updated by Alexandre Gabriel, an authority in the art of ageing. This ancestral method is inseparable from the identity of Plantation Rums.<\/p>\n

This superb rum was first matured for 11 years in 200-liter ex-bourbon casks in the Trinidadian distillery\u2019s cellars, built entirely of red bricks and particularly admired by Alexandre Gabriel and Andrew Hassell. In addition to their aesthetic appeal, the bricks make it possible to maintain a cool temperature and, as a result, to exert greater control over the ageing of the cane eaux-de-vie. Plantation Trinidad 2009 was then treated to an additional one-year ageing period in Javrezac, in France\u2019s Charente region, in 400-liter French oak barrels from Maison Ferrand.<\/p>\n
