Description
Planteray Cuba Vintage 2016 is a particularly elegant and approachable single cask bottling that pays tribute to Cuba’s rich rum tradition. It was bottled in 2024 after roughly 8 years of maturation. Unlike the house’s other “heavy” or very high-proof vintage releases, the 2016 Cuba focuses on balance, finesse, and a soft, fruity profile. It’s made from molasses at the Ronera Villa Clara distillery in Cuba, distilled in a traditional column still, which yields a lighter, cleaner spirit.
The double aging process:
4 years of tropical aging in Cuba in ex-Bourbon barrels.
4 additional years of continental aging in France (Château de Bonbonnet) in Ferrand French oak cognac barrels.
