Planteray Xaymaca 5 year old
Planteray Xaymaca Special Dry is a bold revival of classic Jamaican pot still rums, delivering the distinctive "rum funk" that defines traditional Jamaican spirits from the 1800s. Crafted from a blend of rums sourced exclusively from Jamaica’s renowned Long Pond and Clarendon distilleries, Xaymaca captures the intensity and complexity of authentic Jamaican rum with a modern twist. This rum is a powerful yet balanced expression, bringing forward fruity, spicy, and earthy flavors in every sip. This rum embodies the iconic 'rum funk' of overripe banana and flambéed pineapple. A tribute to Jamaica's rich rum heritage. Sip it neat or mix it in your favourite cocktail.

Palate: Bold flavors of overripe tropical fruits, with layers of grilled pineapple, clove, and hints of caramelized sugar. The signature Jamaican "funk" adds a complex, slightly funky edge.
