Love the look of these string bottles. There is only a little of the Jamaican funk in the aroma. There is some industrial darkness in the aroma as well. I get lots of alcohol burn in the flavor at first but it mellows out quickly. This certainly is dry. Not the best rum for sipping on its own.

Light yellow in color. On the nose is very complex notes of oak, herbs, strong alcohol with bitter orange and a whiff of vanilla. Palate gives very sharp sting with alcohol and spices. Right after it gives a nice rush of again complex vary of floral notes and grounded nuts, exotic dry fruits too. Some distinct parfumy aroma lingers. Usually I like more sweet rums, but this still has great experience to offer.
A very special smelling expression from Plantation, but I found it dull and uninspired on the palate.
If there was ever a rum to confirm my dislike of Jamaican rum, this is it. If plantation cant a good rum out of Jamaica then I doubt anyone can. Smells bearable with that characteristic vegetative and acetone smell of jamaican rums but then just tastes of banana leaf. Save your money, and dont even buy as a mixer.
Definitely has a bit more funk and is dryer than, say, an Appleton Signature, so it's a bit of a happy medium in between that and a really funky rum like S&C. If I wanted a single Jamaican rum for a drink with a lot of other juices or sweeteners, I'd go with this.
Hรจhรจ, eindelijk weer een spelletjesavond en rum met vriendjes. Begonnen met een oude zachte bekende, en daarna een glas van deze ingeschonken. Hij ruikt best scherp, en zo blijkt hij ook te smaken. Na een poosje is de nasmaak wel ok, maar deze fles wordt niet nog een keer gekocht.
Smell of jungle, paint and tropic fruit. Diverse and funny for explore.
Not as expressive like some other Jamaican stuffs, but good example of that style.
Medium body, dry, feeling of sweetness from natural fruity character, some tannins...
Very good price quality. You can drink it neat, with coke, in cocktails...
Versatile rum for a good price.
A really nice spicy delivery.
"Quite spicy, quite a lot of heat โ white pepper, ginger and all spice."

I know Plantation is a bit of a controversial brand among rum aficionados, but this is genuinely a very nice offering from them. Oaky and fruity, it's unmistakably Jamaican while also being pleasantly smooth and refined. It's no hogo bomb like Smith & Cross, but there's definitely a bit of funk going on, certainly more so than Appleton Signature. This makes it very accessible and a great introduction to Jamaican rums for someone looking to move beyond Bacardi and Captain Morgan and explore the wider world of rum. Overall it's a very pleasant rum at a very attractive price point that works nicely as either a sipper or in a cocktail and I would definitely recommend picking up a bottle and trying it out if you haven't already.
