About this deal

The spirit of this fictitious character inspired a brand new style of rum. But despite being macerated and purified in pineapple, Plantation Stiggins’ Fancy doesn’t taste particularly like pineapple. You could taste its subtle notes, but it’s far from a pineapple-flavored rum.

Rum s ľahkými kvetinovými tónmi. Aróma po kôstkovom ovocí (marhuľa, broskyňa…) v kombinácii s intenzívnou vanilkou. Prirodzene sladký rum má ovocné pozadie zvýraznené citrusmi, zaujme kakaový podtón. Záver je stredne dlhý, drevitý, a stále do ovocia s vanilkou. A trochu viac alkoholový (niet sa ale čo čudovať, rum je fľaškovaný pri sile 49,3%). Krátke zhodnotenie Still, it’s a fine mixer for your next poolside drink. And for what it’s worth, the price is pretty reasonable for both expressions.

The production process for pineapple-distilled rum in the Rum Quay was simple. To start, the juice was extracted from the pineapple with a press. Next, the rum is soaked in the pressed pulp for multiple weeks. Before being casked or bottled for export, the pineapple-infused rum and pulp are thrown into blending vats with normal rum. How is Pineapple Rum made today? Hemingway certainly knew his drinks, and his twist on a classic daiquiri includes grapefruit juice for a tangy, bittersweet note which complements the sweet pineapple flavours of the rum perfectly. Rum is a versatile spirit and can be mixed with drinks like ginger beer, ginger ale, club soda, fruit juices, cola, coconut water, tonic water, lemonade, coffee, and cream. Does Coke Go With Pineapple Rum? Since Plantation Stiggins’ Fancy, we have seen several brands try to jump in on the pineapple rum craze. From Bacardi to Captain Morgan to Malibu and Cruzan, it seems that all the rum brands are hopping on the bandwagon. Rum s krásnou mahagónovou farbou vonia po klinčekoch, škorici, vanilke a hnedom cukri s dubovými tónmi. Chuť je intenzívna, dominuje karamel, čokoláda, káva, slivky a pomaranče a korenistý nádych klinčekov v kombinácii s karamelizovanými jablkami a pečenými banánmi. To všetko pocítite vtedy ako ho budete dlhšie ochutnávať po malých dávkach. Krátke zhodnotenie

The rest of the ageing period is performed in ex-cognac “Ferrand casks” in France. This rum provides a kaleidoscope of tasty tropical notes and the aroma of pipe tobacco too! It is presented in a squat Scotch-style bottle with a bright and colourful label depicting tropical flowers, birds, and lizards and boldly marked “Isle of Fiji.” On The Nose

The Bar Classics

Depending on what type of rum is used to macerate the pineapples, you may also taste hints of a different rum, like white rum or spiced rum. The scent of your pineapple rum will also be affected by what kind of rum was used. Just like their Grande Reserve, Plantation Barbados 5 Years is produced from a blend of Barbadian rums, aged for three to four years in the tropical climate of Barbados. Other ingredients you may taste in your pineapple rum include soft brown sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon. You may also taste some additional sweetness if the pineapples in your rum were roasted or candied. Before the success of the Plantation Stiggins’ Fancy, pineapple rum was hardly a real concept. However, that would all change in the coming years, as several new producers started rolling out their own pineapple-inspired rums. So, what’s Pineapple Rum?

No longer is rum an old man’s drink or a measly component of mixed drinks. Rum is a standalone hero now. No longer does it lurk in the shadows behind its distilled counterparts, whiskey and gin.This version of Old Fashioned is made with pineapple rum, demerara syrup, lime bitters, overproof rum, and ginger bitters. Essentially the extra-aged version of the company’s flagship Barbados 5 Year Rum, Plantation XO was unsurprisingly created for the brand’s 20th anniversary, but is a regular part of the rotation and the most “premium” of the standard Plantation brands. This one is significantly older on average, being a blend of column and pot still Barbados rums aged tropically for 8-15 years, before spending at least 2 and as many as 10 years in secondary maturation in France before final blending. Plantation notes that the French aging takes place in “many different types of casks, ranging from new white oak to bourbon casks, as well as Ferrand casks, each with different level of toasting.” Complexity is no doubt what they’re shooting for, though one wishes that such a product would have been released at a strength above 80 proof. This one also has moderate dosage. A sweet and full-bodied rum, Plantation Gran Anejo opens with spiced toffee and vanilla. Mid-palate reveals nutmeg and cinnamon. A smooth and long finish of toffee, tobacco, woody notes Summary If it’s more of a one off thing, I might split the base with some Plantation 3 star, or maybe even add a hint of Smith and Cross. Pineapple Mojito is usually served in a tall glass garnished with mint leaves and chunks and is perfect for those who like pineapple flavor. 4. Pineapple Rum Punch

Plantation Original Dark showcases toasty oak tannins and burnt Demerara sugar notes with Christmas fruitcake, funky Jamaican fruit, and a spicy crème brûlée aftertaste. Summary In that post, I wrote about using the rum as a unique negroni variation, but for the average person, the most likely use case for this rum would be in a Pineapple daiquiri – also known as a Stiggins daiquiri.

We’ve seen the mango rum trend. And we’ve seen the orange rum trend. But now, it’s time for pineapple.
