Finally was I able to get my hands on this beauty! Cant go wrong with Plnatation, this an amazing rum for the $21 only. Nice bottle, good taste, not overly sweet, no alcohol burn, definitely a must have.
Uffff buenísimo para ser un 5 años. Se siente el dulce sin llegar a exagerar, y lo disfrutas si quieres solo o con hielo. Ni imaginar cómo puede combinar. Una muy buena sorpresa.
Easy drinking light rum. Mildy sweet with a clean finish and very little burn. A good sipping rum for everyday
Easily a 7 for the price at £26 It's a steal. Wonderful mixer and actually ok to sip even after 5 years. Plantation do their rums well fine Barbados tastes of the Caribbean
Very fruity, smooth, can drink neat with no problem
It’s a kind of sweet rum. I think it’s better on the nose than it is to the mouth. Rich aromas (very pleasant), rich fruity and sweet taste. For one or two glasses the most.
I do not recommend on the rocks (it will get weak), I think it’s better straight out of the bottle. Not to great for a cigar. For the money it costs it is fair. It has added sugar but not to much. If you like Diplomatico reserva exclusiva, for half the price you will like this too.
In two words: good and cheap but not “wow””.
Great introduction to Bajan style, very easy to drink, great mixer.
My original review of this rum was hasty & ultimately wrong. This one really grew on me over time. Is it a great sipper? No but it is fine as one. Whether sipping or used as a mixer you just can't go wrong here especially at the price. Enjoy!!
This rum is not the best rum you will ever try. Nor is it even close to being the best rum in the Plantation line up. For its price though this rum is absolutely unbelievable. It may bring a bit of heat and harshness with it, but it still carries quite a pack of vanilla sweetness both in on the nose and in the taste. I prefer my rums to have a bit of heat and this rum does just that. The more you sip on it the more you will appreciate just how great this rum is for its price. I also have let it breath for quite a bit and found that quells the harshness a bit and pulls forward a bit more sweet.

Dejlig sød og let drikkelig. Til en pris på lige under 250kr, er det umiddelbart svært at finde en bedre flaske.
