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? First place went to Nico de Soto of Mace in New York and Danico in Paris. His recipe calls for a total of three rums: the aforementioned Plantation pineapple rum; New Grove Plantation white rum, which has notes of guava and banana, from the island of Mauritius; and Père Labat 40, an agricole-style rum from the island of Marie-Galante. To this is added three-quarters of an ounce of pineapple juice, a half-ounce of lime juice and a quarter-ounce of rich cane syrup. Arriving with no garnish other than a fluffy crown of froth, thanks to the fresh pineapple juice, McGee described it as “archetypal” while Favre found that “the cane flavor of the rum supports the fruit,” for a particularly balanced and integrated expression of the drink. Ročníkový rum z oceňovanej limitovanej edície Birds of Paradise pochádza z pivníc najstaršieho producenta rumov v Austrálii, destilérky Beenleigh Artisan. 14-ročný rum zrel najprv 13 rokov v sudoch po bourbone a následne ešte jeden ďalší vo francúzskych dubových sudoch v celkovom počte 21 kusov (á 400 litrov) a jedná sa o jednorazové vydanie.

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 For a more luxurious sipping experience, Plantation XO 20th Anniversary offers a complex and rich taste at a very reasonable price.

When the entrepreneurial Frenchman Alexandre Gabriel started the Maison brand, he set his sights on producing premium, quality cognac. Little did he know that he was going to introduce a revolutionary style of rum to the industry. Flavored and spiced rums now make up over 55% of rums sold in the world. Besides pineapple rum, drinkers can also enjoy citrus, raspberry, vanilla, and others. It has a warm, slightly spicy note from the cinnamon powder that pairs well with the tart flavor of the lemon juice and the sweet, tropical flavor of the pineapple juice.Plantation Original Dark Rum (Double Aged rum) je už na prvý pohľad nezvyčajná kombinácia jamajského a barbadoského rumu. Jamajský fermentuje 2 týždne, destiluje sa pomocou pot still zariadenia a zreje 10 až 15 rokov. Barbadoský zase fermentuje 3 dni, destilácia je dvojitá column still a pot still a zreje 1-3 roky. Po zmiešaní si ešte tradične „oddýchne“ vo Francúzsku v sudoch po koňaku – tentoraz 3 až 6 mesiacov. Pred fľašovaním sa doň ešte pridáva cukor (15 g/l).

Zlatý rum vonia po melase, hruškách, banánoch a ďalšom ovocí s trochou vanilky a muškátového orecha. Chuť je iba mierne sladká, ale hlavne dymová a za dubom, a vystupujú z nej naozaj len decentné tóny vanilky, medu, sliviek, hrozienok kokosu či zázvoru (vôňa navnadí, ale chuť už nie je tak výrazná a mnohovrstevnatá). Kratší záver je tak trochu korenistý za sušeným banánom a bourbonom. Krátke zhodnotenie 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.The secret to the success of Plantation’s pineapple rum is the distillation process. First, Queen Victoria pineapples are stripped and the rind is macerated into the house’s white rum, which is already a 3 star product, and left to impart their flavours for one week. Then, the flesh of the pineapples is added during the distillation of a combination of the light rum and a dark rum in a pot still. The pulp is left to develop its flavours for a whole three months so it can permeate the dark rum. When the two spirits are married together, the result is a rich, fruity rum with the real flavours of pineapple.

This tiki classic gets a delightful fruity twist with the addition of pineapple rum. We’ve upped the lime juice to balance out the sweetness, and lowered to orgeat to let the fruit flavours shine. Mix, drink, and imagine yourself on a white sandy beach. On the nose of this one there’s plenty of brown sugar and some grilled pineapple, although it’s not particularly punchy—I genuinely think that if you gave this to someone blind and told them that it was simply “aged rum,” they wouldn’t suspect that there had been actual pineapple involved. On the palate I’m getting some roasted cane flavor, and a bit of that “raw” booze I was tasting in the Original Dark, paired with citrus, green apple and a puff of smoke. It honestly seems like a moderately aged rum that could be used in practically any application, rather than doubling down on drinks that already call for pineapple elements. The sweet and tangy flavors of the pineapple juice and lemon juice are balanced by the crispness of the white wine, while the white rum and club soda add richness and refreshing dizziness.Some producers are also adamant about only using Victorian-style pineapples. These giant-sized pineapples are the size of a bowling ball. Cognac & Rum: a beautiful blend Wow, this tastes like a completely different rum. The lime really pulls out the pineapple without making it overly sweet. The biggest change is the baking spices. It’s reminiscent of a mulled cider.

Ostatné Plantation rumy by sme však odporúčali kupovať radšej už v overených špecializovaných obchodoch s alkoholom – aj na internete. Takto budete mať dosť času na výber vhodnej fľaše a tiež väčšiu šancu natrafiť aj o dosť výrazne nižšiu cenu v akcii.

Using his knowledge of wooden cask aging, he was able to invent the Plantation Stiggins’ Fancy. Producers in the 18th and 19th centuries would soak their rums in pineapple after they were already made. But today, just how grapes are used to create the base for wine, pineapples are being used to create the base for rum.
