It was a big day for cocktail geeks when Plantation Pineapple first saw the light of day. What sets this “spiced” rum apart from others in the genre is the way it is made. No artificial flavors are added here – instead, it is carefully produced according to an old recipe for pineapple rum from the 1800s. The white rum, Plantation 3 Stars, is infused with the “bark” of the small, sweet Victoria pineapples and the infusion is subsequently distilled. Meanwhile, the pineapple flesh is placed in Plantation Original Dark and this is mixed with the distilled infusion. This gives you both an incredible (and above all natural) pineapple aroma and a wonderful but balanced sweetness. Your daiquiris will never be the same!

Colour: Dark golden

Scent: PINEAPPLE! Behind the fruit, warm spices such as cloves and cardamom are felt.

Tasting notes: The taste is not as sweet as one might expect. Here we once again find pineapple, as well as cinnamon sugar and maracujá.

Serving suggestions: Try it in daiquiris, try it in mai tais, try it in Old Fashioneds… just try it!

Maison Ferrand, led by spirits guru Alexandre Gabriel, is the company behind some of the most essential cognacs, rums and gins in the modern spirits landscape. Under the umbrella there are, among others, Pierre Ferrand Cognac, Plantation Rum and Citadelle Gin, rum under the Kaniché brand and cognac under the name Claude Chatelier. In addition, a number of luxury wines are produced, of which their curaçao in particular has caused excitement in cocktail bars worldwide. The company is broad, but common to every drop is an unwavering dedication to quality.

Maison Ferrand was created with one mission: to preserve the gastronomic treasures of France. Alexandre has made a virtue of breathing life into old and long-forgotten traditions, and the eternally eager Frenchman is known, among other things, for dusting off and buying up old archives from bankrupt houses, in order to learn more about the production methods of the past. But at Ferrand you also understand the value of renewal, and today innovation is valued as highly as tradition. This is clearly seen in the Citadelle Gin brand. Getting permission to distill gin in Cognac required five years of bureaucratic struggle against the area’s stubborn spirit giants.

Since then, the company has spread beyond France’s borders, and today Ferrand is perhaps best known for its series of rums. Under the name Plantation, Alexandre buys rums from many different countries in the Caribbean and stores them in France in cognac casks. In the series there are rums for both the beginner and the connoisseur, for both the daiquiri and the Glencairn glass. In 2017, the company bought the Barbados distillery West Indies Rum Distillery, and now also has its own rum production from scratch.
