From Planteray's Prestige Cellar series comes this cask strength release from Grenada, where a single vintage distillate from 2011 has had 14 years to develop its full character.
Expert Description
Planteray Rum Grenada 2011 Prestige Cellar 14 Year PING 17 is a Grenada Rum aged for 14 years and bottled at cask strength 58.3%.
The rum is part of Planteray's Prestige Cellar series, which releases single vintage and single origin rums in limited runs under the PING label. This release was distilled in 2011 in Grenada and matured for 14 years before being bottled at cask strength without chill filtration or added colouring. Grenada is a lesser-known rum nation compared to Barbados and Jamaica, but produces rum with a distinctive, earthy character that sets it apart from Planteray's more accessible blends.
The result is a powerful, complex rum, where dark fruit and spice meet a long, warm finish shaped by the high strength.
