Planteray Rum

Planteray Rum, formerly known as Plantation Rum, is a renowned rum producer focused on creating high-quality rums from all corners of the world. The brand, founded by Alexandre Gabriel, is a pioneer in the use of dual maturation techniques. The rums mature first in their tropical homelands, where they absorb the powerful influences of the local climate, and are then taken to Château de Bonbonnet in France for a second maturation period in French oak barrels. This double maturation creates a unique balance of rich, tropical flavours and refined, complex notes.

Planteray is known for its commitment to quality and craftsmanship. They use only the best sugarcane molasses and traditional distillation techniques. The brand has a wide range of expressions, from light, fruity rums to rich, deeply matured varieties. Praised worldwide for their complexity and depth, Planteray's rums are loved by rum lovers and cocktail connoisseurs alike for their versatility and unique flavour profiles.
