The Plantation Rum PANAMA 14 Years Old Rye Whiskey Maturation Edition 2021 is a limited-edition single-cask rum from Panama, with an impressive 51.8 per cent alcohol content, presented in a 0.7-litre bottle complete with a gift box. The rum was distilled in 2007 by Alcoholes Del Istmo in Panama from molasses. Its total maturation period of 14 years was spread across three different types of cask and two climate zones. Initially, the rum matured for eleven years under tropical conditions in Panama in an ex-bourbon cask made from American white oak. It was then transported to France, where it underwent a further two years’ maturation in a cognac cask under continental climatic conditions.


For the Maturation Edition 2021, the Plantation Panama 14 Years Old then underwent an exceptional one-year finish in a rye whisky cask from the New York Distilling Company in the USA. It is precisely this rare combination of ex-bourbon cask, cognac cask and rye whisky cask that forms the key distinguishing feature of this bottling. Rye whisky casks are used relatively rarely for the finishing of Central American rums and add an extra spicy and grainy dimension to the matured Panama Rum. With a total age of 14 years, three-stage cask maturation and a robust 51.8% ABV, this Plantation Single Cask Rum is particularly aimed at connoisseurs of limited-edition bottlings and exceptional cask finishes.

Tasting Note

Colour: Deep amber with golden to copper-coloured highlights.

Nose: Complex and intense, with notes of apple and dried fruit, followed by spicy rye, honey, almonds, hazelnuts, sesame and nougat.

Palate: Full-bodied and powerful with orange and fig, accompanied by fondant, toasted almonds and spicy rye whisky notes.

Finish: Long-lasting and multi-layered with fruit, toasted nuts and a distinctive, spicy oak character.

Despite its robust 51.8% ABV, the Plantation Panama 14 Years Old Rye Whisky Maturation Edition 2021 is particularly recommended for enjoying neat at room temperature, with a few drops of still water if desired. It pairs well with savoury dishes such as grilled beef, BBQ dishes or mature hard cheeses, whose robust flavours harmonise with the spicy rye cask character. Suitable sweet accompaniments include dark chocolate, fig-based desserts, nougat and desserts featuring almonds or hazelnuts. This limited-edition single-cask bottling is particularly interesting for rum tastings and comparative tastings of different cask finishes.
