Plantation 3 Stars Artisanal

This bottle went quick. Really pleasant and versatile.

Very approachable rum for Daiquiri. I tasted a great number of rums for Daiquiri and at this price don't think any rum is closing the gap. It's a blend of Barbados, Jamaica and Trinidad. Always have a bottle in the cabinet for the purpose. You can drink it neat as well, but it's made for mixing.

This rum is wonderful on all fronts with about 22/1L. It has some nice fruit notes, a velvety palette and mixes like no other. A wonderful gift for helping friends enter the rum space and can work in anything. Will never say no to planation (even when I often choose worse rums for the sake of exploration).

A surprising treat at $25/bottle. Great lightly chilled, and fantastic for cocktails. This is what you make your daiquiris and mojitos with for friends that you like.

This one surprised me, all the white rums I had so far, have nothing on it!

The nose hit me like a brick, when I opened the bottle, a lot of molasses, dried plums(?), charcoal and some alcohol and fruitiness. Like really strong aroma.

The taste pretty much the same, strong, with lots of sugar, molasses, plums, charcoal and a bit of alcohol. Not harsh, but very sweet, heavy and a bit of a burn at the end.

Some time after the bottle was opened the alcohol burn is a bit less but still there, taste and nose still going strong. Even thought every thing is a bit overwhelming I would definitely buy again. This one is not as mellow and fruity as the Matusalem Platino, but both have a place in my heart.

p.s. Would've given it a "9", but it;s a bit overwhelming, so "8" it is.

Cheers!

Dependable addition to any tiki bar, this versatile and widely distributed rum delivers good value. Stands on its own well in a daiquiri and plays well with others in more complicated drinks. Use it in anything that calls for a white rum or a lightly aged blended rum.

It's not aged too long, and you can tell when tasting it straight - there's some of that alchohol flavor that comes through more in lesser aged rum. But it tastes of good quality nonetheless. There's some hints of banana notes in there. Overall pretty simple and clean tasting.

This is a recommended workhorse bottle of rum to have on hand.

Nose: Window cleaner. Flavour: not much reasonably smooth with an unpleasant finish, Needs to be mixed. I will finish mine with coke.

one of my best white rum.
A versatile rum blend featuring hints of tropical fruits, vanilla, and floral notes. Crisp and refreshing

I don't drink many white rums but was so glad I tried this one. Majority of what I have consumed is aged and this stands toe to toe with any I have placed in the 7 rating. May be tough to find but worth the search.

Such a great white rum, good alone but fantastic in a mojito
