Plantation Gran Anejo Guatemala & Belize

Beautiful amber/caramel colour in the glass. Has that typical Plantation profile that ONLY becomes especially evident when sampled among other Plantation rums; it is otherwise not so evident to detect. I do detect vanilla on the nose. No question, can be sipped straight.

Not yet available at the LCBO, at $40 at the SAQ this is a solid entry in its price range alongside El Dorado 12 (much sweeter) and Appleton Rare Blend 12 (less sweeter).

Beautiful aroma, very smooth taste, not burning. Long aftertaste with vanilla tones.
Enjoyable partner for long evenings.

I like this. Rich long finish, love the molasses.

One of the stronger pices with significant burn during the entire experience. I can not describe the smell as my nose is always getting burnt by the alcohol.

Très abordable pour un plantation une finale avec des notes d'amande
Un rhum très boisé excellent à déguster dans n'importe quel occasion

This is a light and sweet rum not overly sweet for me but noticeable. This is a watching Sci-fi on Netflix sipper not a blockbuster sipper. There are fruit and spice notes but overwhelmingly more toffee, caramel and toasty variations thereof.
Don’t mind if I do...

Encore une réussite pour ce rhum, l'alliance de la mélasse sur la sucrosite du Guatemala et de la puissance et du côté plus sec de Belize fonctionne à merveille. On se retrouve avec un profil aromatique très intéressant, doux, fruité, sur la banane, le fruit sec, et sans avoir trop de sucre. A découvrir absolument.

Excellent exterior. Noticeable smell: stand out marmalade, orange and tobacco, after them sugarcane, prunes, alcohol. Bright taste: alcohol burns the tip of the tongue, throat, in general it is a pleasant burning sensation-tingling with numbness of the tongue, bitterness, interrupted by sweetness, acid, vanilla. Tasty, but incompleteness.
The weight spreads throughout the body, the tongue becomes stiff. Positively-hard. Later the sugar will make itself felt by the noise in the head.

Gute Wahl für Einsteiger. Nicht zu komplex, jedoch kann man beide Regionen klar schmecken.

I’ve found a few Plantation Rums have a similar smell (including this one). Light, sweet and something along the lines citrus & pineapple.
Light on the pallet to start. Then the spices kick-in and linger for some time.
Overall: 7.5
