Plantation Jamaica 2003 (Hummingbird)
Plantation Jamaica 2003 is a vintage release for the brand's Birds of Paradise limited edition collection. The rum was distilled in double retort Vendome pot stills at Clarendon Distillery. Here the rum got a long, spontaneous fermentation (two weeks) using indigenous yeast, and was made using vinasse and muck–-a compost of distillation residues–-all resulting in a high-ester heavy rum.
It aged for 16 years in Jamaica in ex-bourbon barrels before further aging in Maison Ferrand French oak casks in Cognac for one year. 29 casks were produced and it was bottled at 49.5% ABV.

Aged RumRum that is aged, but no specific type or size barrel required. No set time required for length of aging, but will often carry an age statement (which should be taken with a grain of salt). Often thought of as "sipping rums".
