Planteray - 3 Stars White Rum (1L)
Planteray Description
A large majority of rum producers offer a white rum variety. Maison Ferrand wanted to produce a white rum that would stand out from the others using rums aged and unaged and taking advantage of the exceptional talent of the House for blending cognacs. Plantation 3 Stars is a blend of rums from three islands: Trinidad (rum aged two or three years), Barbados (young rum), and Jamaica (old rum). This final blend was carefully thought out by our cellar master and each island brings its own aromatic characteristics.
TASTE PROFILE
"Opening aroma offers delicate scents of brown sugar, honey, coffee bean, cocoa bean; later whiffs following further aeration encounter baking spices, especially, vanilla, allspices, cloves; a bouquet of delicacy. Entry is biscuity, batter-like, yet is bittersweet and light-bodied; mid-palate features round, supple flavors of dark chocolate, root beer, toasted marshmallow, egg cream, vanilla soda. Finishes fast, refined, almost fragile. Serious white rum at its grassy, herbal best."

Made with rums from Jamaica, Barbados and Trinidad, and blended in France by Cognac Ferrand, this pleasing white rum offers a mild aroma like a grassy breeze and a smooth, slightly viscous texture. A lightly sweet coconut flavor morphs into vanilla, candied lemon peel and cinnamon sparks on the warming finish. Sip or mix.
