Notes: With Xaymaca Special Dry, Plantation Rum revives the quintessential Jamaican-style, 100% pot still rums of the 19th century with an expression of intense flavors that reveal the traditional, legendary "Rum Funk": aromas and flavors of black banana and flambéed pineapple, locally called "Hogo," an Anglicization of the French term "Haut Goût"

 


Xaymaca evokes the name given to the island by its first inhabitants, the Arawaks. This nectar is a return to the origins of Jamaican rum, in all its complexity and intensity.

 


Xaymaca Special Dry is a blend of rums distilled in the old John Dore pot still at Long Pond Distillery and the Vendôme at Clarendon. The idea is to boldly assert the powerful and expressive character of these rums.

 


Perfect for vintage cocktails that call for 100% pot still Jamaican Rum, like the classic 1944 Mai Tai.

 


Nose: Very complex, slightly smoky and meaty with fruity, herbal and sour notes building up. Next vanilla come forward, almost pastry-like, with cooked banana, bitter orange peel and ripe pineapple.

Palate: Dry, with a more floral and fruitier profile of rose water, soursop, pear, white grape, apricot and sugar-apple. Next some coconut milk, balsam, allspices, bread and nuts emerge.
