Plantation Rum
Double-aged Caribbean terroir, Plantation Rum craftsmanship, Cognac-cask depth and balance
Founded by Maison Ferrand in 1989 under cellar master Alexandre Gabriel, Plantation Rum champions double aging: tropical maturation at origin followed by a second rest in French Cognac casks. This meticulous approach layers ripe fruit, spice, and silkier textures, giving signature finesse across the range, from bar workhorses to contemplative sippers like Plantation XO 20th Anniversary.
On RumX, the world’s largest rum community, the brand holds a 7.7/10 median from 10,555 reviews, praised for clarity on distillation, aging, and dosage. Expect terroir-first profiles that spotlight Barbados elegance, Jamaica’s esters, and Central American richness, backed by transparent labels and real user tasting notes you can trust.
