PLANTATION ISLE OF FIJI — AN ODE TO THE BEAUTY OF THE FIJI ISLANDS

From the pristine lagoons to the lush jungles, Plantation Isle of Fiji is an ode to the beauty ofthe Fiji Islands.

This delicious rum is made using traditional techniques and local Fijian sugar cane. First aged in this tropical climate in bourbon casks, the rum is then sailed to the southwest of France for a second maturation in French oak casks.

This double ageing method paired with Fijian know-how creates a rum with warm notes of exotic fruits and raisin.
