I respect the production technology of this pineapple rum, but there is not much pineapple in the taste, the smell is present, but also restrained, perhaps it is overwhelmed by the smell of cherry. Not a bad pineapple rum, the quality is excellent, but I would like more taste

I haven't had a Plantation rum I didn't like. Where we live, it is a good price and it is great for sipping

This is a really good rum, it is one of my favorites. Even though this is a "Pineapple" rum, the pineapple flavor is not dominant. It is rather like a good dark rum with a very subtle flavoring.

My favorite rum in a Daiquiri was Plantation 3 Star. Then along came this flavored one. It's very good contestant to 3 Star. Looking forward to receiving my Probitas White soon...

Tried as a sipper. Too pineapple. May buy again for a simple mix. Appreciate Plantation’s quality in making this.

I was afraid of the pineapple flavor, but it suits him surprisingly well. Regardless, I still prefer the XO.

Egy ilyen ízesített rumtól sokkal rosszabbat vártam. Nem túl édes, nem túl tolakodó. Finomam jelnetkezik az ananász. Nekem bejött, érdemes adni neki egy esélyt!

Smells like caramelized pineapple and brown sugar.

One of the few "flavored rum" that is done the right way and taste delicious. Good for sipping as well as making a Painkiller Cocktail or Pineapple Daiquiri

Bought a case last summer while in NYC for a short vacation. A lot of expectations after following and reading on the birth, or re-birth I should say of the Pineapple Rum. And it does not disappoint.
It is like mentioned elsewhere a lot more rum forward than pineapple. The nose is classic aged rum full of spices and toffee, with at first a quite subtle pineapple rinds note. Taste is generous. Compared to the Original Dark which it it is based on, this a lot longer, with the pineapple giving it a delicious round buttery finish. And then the pineapple just grows on you. Letting it breath will unleash the pineapple in a luscious way.
My friend and I each drank a bottle while in NYC, roaming around with our flasks filled up with it. I mixes incredably well, in lattes for breakfast, and especially with the local Lime Rickey, for of safe street sipping new classic drink: The Pineapple Rickey.
Not sipping the stuff all day was the toughest thing returning back home after this short vacation. You live in the US? Consider yourself blessed and seek it. Great folks at Ferrand/ Plantation are currently concocting a new batch of 50K+ bottles so hopefully it will become more widely available. Unfortunately it won't be available here in Quebec for 2016.
Thank you Plantation!
