Plantation 22 Year Old Extreme No.3 Long Pond Jamaican Rum 700ml
No reviews
A 22 year old rum from the Long Pond distillery in Jamaica. Distilled in 1996 on the John Doze pot still and barreled with the mark HJC, before being bottled by Maison Ferrand for the Plantation Rum brand.
Striving not for balance or harmony, it stands alone for its uniqueness of taste which can only be described as “extreme”. This cask is then set aside and bottled for its sheer exquisite essence, resulting in a very limited edition of what we call Plantation Extrême.
We've always been fans of Languedoc reds, and having tried this for the first time we are much taken with this example of southern whites. Beautiful balance of acidity and freshness. This will be on our repeat shopping list like Villa Blanche.
Although this is a new vintage for us, it never fails to delight. Full of lovely crisp Grenache flavour. We bought it for summer and starting drinking it in mid-winter!!
Clear cab sav and merlot on the nose, clean not complex. Soft tannins and good fruit moderately sustained.. Clean finish. Good oak handling. Certainly not a platinum whatever that is but good silver and excellent value for the money
A great bridge between commercial and premium, plus it's a good conversation starter! 5 stars at the current discounted price.

Great Value
At its price, one of the best reds I have tasted. The experience is consistent with the bottle notes, fruity, balanced with a hint of oak and a long finish.
