Plantation Original Dark Trinidad

Can't go wrong with plantation, just plain good rum for cheap price.

I usually buy the 5 year old that's made in Barbados and I've had some older version of there rum that are great. My local liquor warehouse was out of my usual 5 YO so I thought I'd try this and bought 2 x 1.75L. Wish I hadn't. This Jamaican rum is not very good. I usually drink my rum on the rocks but even mixing this it was still bad. It has a nasty after taste, maybe it's me as I see some ok reviews. Now I have over 3L of rum I'll end up tossing or give to a homeless person.

Plantation is my favourite rum at the moment and this original dark is also a nice one. It Smells very fruity, and it’s taste also like That. The aftertaste is still fruity but with a very little burn in it. What a nice one. And in the cola he’s the best. I give it an 8!!!

This was my first bottle, when I started tasting and "collecting" rum bottles and flavors. I like the smoothness, the vanilla and a little bit of cinnamon flavor. A little burn after you taste it, but is fine. Good price!

Sampled at the Laka Lono Rum Club tasting on 5/28/20. Dark brown in color. Bananas and vanilla in the aroma. Molasses and maple syrup flavors. Smooth with a cocoa finish.

Not amazing. Almost no aroma and a strong sting of alcohol. Straight is almost indistinguishable from a generic vodka, and it doesn't exactly shines in cocktails either.

I've heard that plantation makes good rum, so I decided to buy myself a bottle, big mistake. First whiff singed my nose, and the taste singed my mouth, throat and taste buds If you want a sipping rum there are many better option than this particular bottle. Diplomatico or even Havana club is much better

Doesn't taste well..
Has a nasty afterflavour.. better flush it away with some coke

Smells a bit like butterscotch and cherries. Tastes sweet with a taste of fruit and cherries. Pleasant but not outstanding. Would buy again for my regular rum but not sure of price as I bought as sample.

Part of the tasting pack. Mild to moderate flavours. Not to my style.
