Plantation Fiji 2009 Rum

An intense, vintage rum from Fiji's South Pacific Distillery, this is a blend of both pot- and column-distilled rums. Matured in ex-bourbon casks for seven years before a 2-year finish in French Château de Bonbonnet Cognac barrels, this is an intensely tropical rum with deep, dark-chocolate bitterness, rich baking spice and lashings of jammy fruit.
