Plantation O.F.T.D Overproof:
Back in the Age of sail, the rum was rich flavorful and strong. It had to be, because nobody was going to hand it out to sailors without first tuning it into punch, or at least cutting it with water, and the rum had to be able to stand up to that. Plantation O.F.T.D is our take on that classic style. And not just ours; to join him on the quest ti get the blend and the proof just right, our award winning Cellar Master, Alexandre Gabriel, sourced rums-joints around the world to find six grizzled old salts who knew which end of a rum-bottle was which. Together they came up with this blend of Guyana, Jamaica and Barbados rums, bottled at (just to be on the safe side) a full 20 degrees overproof, according to the way they used to measure these tings in the Royal Navy.

A voyage of discovery:
The waters were poorly charted, the winds treacherous, and a rocky less shore threatened the careless and unhandy. Fortunately, - Captain Gabriel - a Frenchman and a brave one - had a good crew, not a lubber among them. Scotty Schuder, a Parish sort of Yankee, led the foc´sle gang. Paul McFadyen from London town and Paul "the Beard from Chicago" Mcgee looked to the guns, 18-pounders all, Martin Cate from the old Yerba Buena boxed the compass. Jeff "the Bum" Berry, who hails from New Orleans and knows these latitudes better than any man alive, manned the helm while the chaplain, Dr. David Wondrich, mumbled his prayers and called for punch. Now punch needs rums. The crew scaped together what was left on board, poured it together in a jug, passed it around to taste - and cried as one - O F T D!"
