Black Cask is a characterful rum that carries the aromatic impact typical of a dark spirit: on the nose it opens with rich notes of molasses and dark caramel, then sweet spices, cocoa and a light smokiness emerge, adding depth.

On the palate subtle hints of dried fruit and toasted coffee reappear, balancing the structure. The sip is full, warm and well-centered, with a balance between residual sweetness and a dry trail of toasted oak; the texture is smooth yet supported, the finish long and slightly almondy. It’s enjoyable neat to appreciate its mouthfeel, but it also stands up well to a single ice cube or a few drops of water to open the aromas. It lends itself to structured cocktails or intense food pairings: dark chocolate, caramel desserts and aged cheeses enhance its toasted notes, while a full-bodied cigar can complete the experience. A bottle for those seeking a dark rum that is direct and sincere in character.

Brand

Discover the spirits, production style and story of Planteray.

Planteray is Maison Ferrand's rum brand led by founder and master blender Alexandre Gabriel. The brand highlights the different terroirs of rum (Caribbean, Latin America, Indian/Pacific Ocean) and offers a range from bar blends to vintage releases and single cask bottlings, often featuring double maturation: a period of tropical aging in the region of origin followed by a final finish in Ferrand casks in France.

Ageing

Double maturation: initial aging in the place of origin (tropical climate, often in ex‑bourbon) followed by a period of finishing/aging in France in Ferrand casks (ex‑Cognac) or other selected casks (e.g. Pedro Ximénez, special finishes).
