Plantation Isle of Fiji Double Barrel Dark Rum, Barbados, Caribbean (750ml)   

The sole distillery on this isolated Polynesian island makes some of the greatest rums in the world. Using rums made from the local cane and aged on the island for a minimum of 2yrs in ex-Bourbon barrels, this expression is then sailed to France and finished in French Oak Casks before final blending and bottling.

Florence Fabricant writing for the New York Times says is best:  "Plantation Isle of Fiji Double Barrel Rum — an ultrasmooth amber sipper, with a touch of spice to enhance a flavor that conveys molasses, tropical fruit and fudge — boasts an unusual trajectory. It’s distilled from Fijian sugar cane in both alembic and column stills and aged for no less than two years in bourbon casks on Fiji. Then it travels to Ars in southwest France, where it’s aged another year in the Cognac casks of Maison Ferrand, which owns the brand."  - October 26th, 2020
