The Plantation Original Dark Rum comes from Barbados and is blended there from various distillates, which were initially stored in ex-bourbon barrels. Like most Plantation rums, the Original Dark is also developed using a double-aging process. After storage in ex-bourbon barrels, the wine is stored a second time in former cognac barrels in the Ferrand cellars in France. The result is a complex and intense rum with aromas of toffee and roasted almonds as well as memories of chocolate pralines. The taste shows notes of dried fruits as well as spicy, sweet oak, vanilla and tropical fruits.

Would you like a top-selling rum that, surprisingly, does not come from an island in the Caribbean? Then you’ve come to the right place with the Ron Zacapa Centenario brand. It is responsible for high-quality, fascinating rum from Guatemala in South America, which is produced in a very special way. Interestingly, the tasty Ron Zacapa Sistema Solera 23 is not made from molasses, but from “virgin sugar cane honey”, a type of sugar cane honey. After distillation, the sophisticated storage takes place using the solera system. In the solera process, inspired by Spanish sherry, the contents of different barrels are mixed several times during maturation so that young and old distillates are blended together. Such a blend with the number 23 indicates that the oldest components were allowed to mature for over two decades, while the other parts are significantly younger. The Ron Zacapa Centenario 23 Years also benefits from the fact that the resting phase takes place in various oak barrels at an altitude of over 2,000m in rock caves under special climatic conditions.
