South Pacific Plantation Isle of Fiji 4yr 40%

RX86 Good Pot & Column Still Rum <50€
“Smooth and sweet, fruity with banana notes.”

Plantation Isle of Fiji is a rum distilled from molasses at the South Pacific distillery and bottled by Maison Ferrand. Aged for four years, it combines traditional pot and column still methods for a nuanced flavor profile. Users note its fruity aroma with hints of banana, tropical fruit, and vanilla, alongside a sweet and fruity palate featuring honey and banana. While some appreciate its accessibility and mixing potential, others find it overly sweet with a short finish. The 40% ABV rum is characterized by its pleasing smoothness, making it an entry-level choice for those exploring Fijian rums, although it sometimes lacks complexity.

“Overall is the nose unpleasant, palate better than expected and too short finish. The nose is fruity, spicy and smoky with additional smells of glue, alcohol and vanilla. At the palate it tastes like the nose indicated except for alcohol and glue, instead it’s very sweet.”
