Plantation Overproof O.F.T.D.

Overproof rum is a world on its own, and it is certainly not for the faint of heart. With that being said, if you enjoy the burn, then you will probably love this edition from Plantation.

Nose: Plum, caramel and a light funk infused with banana bread
Taste: Very rich taste of maple, overripe fruit and a nice smoky body. Long warm aftertaste that spreads from the mouth, not only to the throat, but the whole body.
Overall: This rum is really something special. The 69% abv is something, that will scare of some people, and that is understandable, but if you are up for it you will get a tasting experience like no other.

At first I was spewing fire, but then I mixed it with some ginger beer, and I was awestruck! Truly a fantastic choice!

I haven't found a rum in the "dark" category that I like more than this. It is great in Tiki drinks, floating on other rum cocktails, or sipping slowly on the rocks. I can't seem to put my finger on it, but there's something about this rum that just cheers me up... oh yeah, maybe it's the 138 proof.

I use this to make the Zombie and other tiki drinks that call fir Lemon Hart 151 and Jamaican/demerara blends. I recently made a simple mix with fresh lime juice and sugar syrup and I swear there was cinnamon in the mix but that’s because the lime, ice and sugar mellows out the high proof and lets those notes stand out. Sipping it is only good if you are Gene Simmons and plan to breathe fire!

I was very pleasantly surprised! This is my first overproof rum. I fell in love with its orange-coffee aroma and chocolate aftertaste. Be careful - it burns)

sure I do not need to review around that is so highly acclaimed. Has a nice thick dark color and a fantastic taste so many delicious types of molasses and dark flavoring. you just have to be careful as the high percentage that sneak up on you.

Can it compete with the trusty lemon hart 151? Yes! In fact, this is sippable... mind you, you’ll get messed right up...

My favorite in the overproof section, not brutal but strong, possible to sip not so funky with body and fruits.

Cette bouteille est a mon sens la réponse, en toute simplicité, a la question "qu'est ce que le rhum".
Une attaque franche et fraîche , des notes épicées et légèrement caramel.
Une grande réussite a mon sens

This is certainly a rum that should be in every cocktail makers cabinet and will be firmly added into mine wonderful flexibility
