Distilled in 1998 in Barbados and bottled by Maison Ferrand.
THE BOTTLER
Maison Ferrand is a key reference point in the world of Cognac and thanks to his experience and deep knowledge of Caribbean rums, launched the brand Plantation in 2003.
In 1989 AlexandrE Gabriel, today president and owner, started his career in the company, at that time one of the oldest and most respectable spirits brand in Cognac, but with a low sales volume.
His capacities and attention to detail, allowed him to create an extensive network of contacts still standing today.
The 90s were marked by his continuous travels to the Caribbean, looking for the best rums from different regions, until 2003, year of launch of the brand Plantation. In 2012, he was awarded Master Blender of the Year and Distiller of the Year.
AlexandrE Gabriel is also owner of the West Indies Rum Distillery (WIRD) in Barbados and got shares in National Rums Of Jamaica, owner of Clarendon and Long Pond distilleries, that gives him privileged access to their warehouse.
