The rum was made in Guyana with the historic original stills of three different sugar cane estates from the 18 th and 19 th centuries that were then blended and aged 13-years in ex-bourbon casks and another two in Cognac. Under the Sea release is Guyana 2007, for which he chose just 21 casks. The latest offering is the Under the Sea Vintage collection, wherein Plantation’s owner and master blender selects his perfect barrels from particular vintages, then finishes them in Ferrand cognac casks in Europe. Plantation has been doing this for a long time, are very good at it, have a lot of great rums and keep adding more. Plantation is part of renowned French cognac and fine spirit house Maison Ferrand, and their big innovation was sourcing great rums and then bring them to France for an extra second ageing in cognac casks. Plantation Under The Sea Guyana 2007: Plantation Rum is another one of my can’t-miss favorite brands, but has a totally different approach. Plantation ages its rums a second time in France, using cognac barrels, and the vintage Guyana 2007. Sure, you can make a great cocktail as well, but better rums stand toe to toe with great whiskies, brandies or agave spirits as something you can enjoy on their own, and that’s the gift you want to give. Let’s skip unaged white rums, which are for very basic cocktails, short-aged mass-produced dark rums that are for slightly better cocktails, spiced rums which just don’t make any sense at all, and stick with the good stuff, dark aged rums for sipping. Why? Because rum remains one of the most undiscovered great spirits, and like wine, comes in so many different forms from very different places. Scotch, bourbon or tequila can all be good choices if you know your audience, but if that audience includes a food and beverage connoisseur, someone who likes to try different tastes and appreciates the finer things in life, I suggest rum. The holidays are a time of gift giving, and one of the most popular gifts is a good bottle of booze. If someone on your Holiday Gift list enjoys spirits, shake things up this year with a fine rum.
