Plantation 1996 HJC Jamaica Extreme No.3 22yo 56.2% 700ml information

The Plantation 1996 HJC Extreme No.3 Jamaica LP 22yo rum is a rare and exceptional product, distilled in 1996 at the Long Pond Distillery using the famous John Dore still, which infuses it with characteristic pot still aromas. The "marks" regulate the intensity and non-alcoholic particles in the rum. The Long Pond Distillery is renowned for producing multiple rums, and this particular Plantation - 1996 Extreme Jamaica 22 years old has the HJC mark, indicating an ester level of 345 gr/hlap (hectolitre of pure alcohol). These esters impart rich, flavorful, and spicy notes.

This rum was first matured in bourbon casks for 21 years and then for another year in Ferrand casks in France. It is the third release in the Extreme series, a collection of limited-edition rums bottled by Maison Ferrand in August 2018. This numbered bottling is highly sought after, with only 2,121 bottles available, making it a true collector's item.

Upon aeration, the rum's concentration and oxidation are emphasized, giving the impression of a thick, viscous liquid with a muscat, banyuls, or even vin jaune-like character. The aroma is exotic, tropical, and full-bodied, with sweet, sticky fruits releasing heavy, syrupy, and honeyed droplets. The taste is robust and spicy, with a hint of oak and powerful stone fruit notes, such as cherries and plums. The finish is long, with lingering flavors of stone fruit, oak, and spice.

Overall, the Plantation 1996 HJC Extreme No.3 Jamaica LP 22yo rum is a complex, well-balanced, and flavorful spirit, ideal for sipping and enjoying slowly. Its limited availability and high quality make it a desirable collectible for rum connoisseurs and enthusiasts.
