Planteray 'Stiggins Fancy Pineapple' Flavoured Dark Rum is an artisanal blend that draws from the rich traditions of the Caribbean. It is crafted from molasses sourced across three distinguished distilleries: Barbados' West Indies Rum Distillery, Jamaica's Long Pond Distillery, and Trinidad Distillers Ltd. The blend undergoes a meticulous fermentation process, with Barbados and Trinidad rums fermenting for 73 hours and Jamaica's for an extensive two weeks, followed by a combination of distillation techniques, including pot stills, column stills, and the traditional Ferrand Copper Pot Still in France.
This rum is a tribute to Reverend Stiggins, a Charles Dickens character known for his love of pineapple rum. The creation starts with the delicate Victoria pineapple, hand-cut to preserve its natural sweetness. The pineapple's bark is infused and redistilled with Planteray 3 Stars rum, while its sweet flesh is macerated in the Original Dark rum. The result is a harmonious blend that captures the tropical essence of the pineapple, delivering vibrant notes of caramelized fruit, hints of citrus zest, and warm spices.
With an alcohol content of 40%, this rum is versatile enough to be enjoyed neat or as the base for exquisite cocktails. Its balance of sweetness and complexity makes it a bartender's go-to choice for crafting tropical drinks that stand out. Whether savored on its own or mixed into your favorite cocktail, Planteray 'Stiggins Fancy Pineapple' promises a refreshing and aromatic experience.
