Plantation Isle Of Fiji double aged rum

Описание: Isle Of Fiji is sourced from the Rum Company of Fiji under the direction of Master Distiller Liam Costello on the island of Viti Levu. The spirit begins with a rather long and warm molasses fermentation of four to five days before being distilled in both modern column stills and traditional pot stills.

These distillates are aged for two to three years in Bourbon casks in the tropical climate before a second maturation in French oak casks in the Southwest region of France. The resulting double-aged blend brilliantly assimilates the traditional Fijian style, with the fine finishes reminiscent of the Cognac regions.

Plantation Isle Of Fiji was the Chairman's Trophy Winner in the annual Ultimate Spirits Challenge tasting competition held in Hawthorne, New York. With a score of 98 points, Plantation Isle Of Fiji was awarded the "Extraordinary, Ultimate Recommendation."

Aromas of jackfruit and banana, molasses and yeasty bread precede hints of soft green apple, vanilla bean, tart berries and toasted oak. On the palate, a sweet entry of creamy vanilla custard and honey quickly leads to ripe exotic fruit and spices. The mixed fruit compote and spicy notes linger in the medium long finish.
