A 10 year old single cask Barbados rum from Planteray with an Arran whisky-cask finish, bottled at cask strength 50.9%, fruity and barrel-driven with tropical fruit and a bourbon-sweet edge that wants time in the glass.
Description
This Barbados rum carries the Planteray name, the Maison Ferrand brand known for double ageing and an accessible house style, here as a single cask release finished in an Arran cask, an unusual Scotch whisky-cask treatment laid over aged Bajan spirit. It runs ten years old at a cask strength 50.9%.
The molasses distillate matured in ex-bourbon oak before the Arran cask added its layer, giving a fruity, barrel-forward profile with tropical fruit and a bourbon-sweet edge. At full strength it benefits from a rest in the glass, the alcohol settling to reveal a more drinkable spirit underneath. As a Planteray bottling it sits in the brand's finish-driven territory rather than a strict purist line, a whisky-cask curiosity for drinkers who enjoy seeing Barbados rum reshaped by an unexpected cask.
