Plantation Extreme No. 4 Clarendon MMW 26 Year Old Rum
This is a 26 year old and part of the dosage-free Extreme series from Plantation. Distilled in 1994 on the pot stills at the Clarendon distillery. This has spent 25 years in a bourbon cask in the tropics, and a further 1 ageing in Ferrand casks in France.
Clarendon distillery is one of the Caribbean’s newer rum factories, built back in 1949. Back then, it was a small operation, running a single pot still produced by legendary Louisville, Kentucky coppersmiths, Vendome. Today it is joined by a second, larger pot still of Indian manufacture, a modern five-column still, both installed in 2009. Operating between January and October each year, the distillery produces around 12 million litres of alcohol each year. Clarendon is technically two distilling operations in one. National Rums of Jamaica has a 73% share, with the remaining 23% owned by their biggest customer, Diageo, who end up taking 90% of Clarendon’s total output for their Captain Morgan and Myers’s brands.
