While I am normally a fan of most of Plantation's offerings this makes me wretch every time I've tried it. Nasty. Headache in a bottle
Bardzo fajna kompozycja. Ananas wyczuwalny ale nie mocno intensywny. Polecam dla smakoszy.
Chut je slabucko ananasova s drevitym podtonom. Zaver je trochu ostrejsi. Rum nie je prehnane sladky. Pri tejto cenovej kategorii som ale zvyknuty na jemnejsie rumy.

Good use of Victoria pineapples. Not a super sweet, syrupy rum. A good blend with a smooth finish. Perfect for what it is. A pineapple flavored rum...

Heerlijke rum met lekker ananassmaak, zacht van smaak en geen scherpe nasmaak, 1 van me favorieten

Que dire de ce rhum aux allures d'un arrangé mais qui n'en est pourtant pas un !
La macération des écorces et du fruit lors de la fermentation assure une qualité gustative exceptionnelle. Il n'est pas trop liquoreux mais donne du fruit en pleine bouche.
Le prix est tout à fait correct au regard du soin apporté à son élaboration.

EVerything about this rum is fake. The fake tasing pineapple flavor, the fake tasting rum profile, ugh. Awful. Unpleasant alcohol burn adds to the atrocity lurking in this bottle. Worst rum I have ever purchased.

Ananas von vorn bis hinten. Dadurch außergewöhnlich. Nicht ganz mein Fall.

Definitely has dosage but it is what it is. Great in a daiquiri, on the rocks, or just chilled.
A rum that can be enjoyed both neat and in cocktails. Always gives you a feeling of Caribbean islands, no matter how you use it. A fantastic balance between rum and pineapple.

Perhaps not one for all rum purists, but this is a far cry from a spiced rum, so I would recommend trying it with an open mind.
When I first uncorked the bottle, it was like sniffing a ripe pineapple that had been soaked in smooth and fruity rum. The taste was then no surprise, with strong notes of pineapple, which doesn't overpower the rummy flavour. The combination of infusing the rum with pineapple bark and then adding distilled pineapple macerate gives a fruity flavour, whilst remaining far less sweet than you might expect ("off-dry" is probably the best descriptor), with a hint of burnt molasses and a smokey finish. I haven't tried the Plantation Original Dark that is used as the base for this, but can deduce that it must have a fairly prominent banana flavour, as this cuts through behind the pineapple. As with most rums, adding a tiny splash of water opens up the flavour a bit.
As has already been said by others, it would be very easy to sip your way through half a bottle of this neat without realising.
I haven't tried mixing it yet, but I'm going to have some with a splash of hot water and some sugar before bed tonight :)
