Dark overproof blend consisting of Jamaica, Guyana and Barbados rums. This rum has very interesting history involving the developing group consisting of the most respected tiki bartenders including Martin Cate, and also cocktail historian David Wondrich who was also involved in making the excellent Plantation pineapple.
Nose: strong cinnamon, nutmeg, sweet tropical fruit.
Taste: Strong cinnamon clove and nutmeg, vanilla and light oak. Dark slightly charred molasses.
Demerara rum flavours dominate this overproof blend, jamaican and barbados flavours are just complimentary elements on the taste.
Finish: spicy, quite dry and lightly oaky lots of kick when sipped neat but no alcohol.
From what i have read this rum doesnt have any added sugar in it so extra points for that.
It can be sipped on its own even though it isnt aged(for long at least), has plenty of strong spicy demerara goodness flavour in it.
Is amazing in tiki cocktails. You could replace the cornerstone lemon hart 151(which is almost impossible to find) with this overproof.
Extremely recommended for tiki lovers.

I like this as a rum option for my homemade falernum to contribute a little flavor beyond my base recipe.

Komplex rom med tydliga toner av arrak och torkade frukter. Funkar som mixer eller ren om den får lufta lite.

This is to date the only Overproof I've tried, but it is delightful. I really like this one. It has notes of overripe bananas, demerara sugar, molasses, some spicy notes. Great to mix and works wonders in tiki drinks.

A specialized overproof rum that not many would use as a sipper. This is made for cocktails. But I did initially evaluate it straight up and then with some added water.

The nose is intense and immediately enjoyable: molasses, orange oil, and spice. With water added, some Jamaican funk is discernible. The palate (with added water) is smooth and rich, a touch sweet, with Demerara sugar, pastry, and a strawberry jam note on exit before the medium-length finish.

I’m not much of a cocktail person, but I could see using this flavourful rum in a punch, or as a spike in Christmas eggnog. It’s good!

Tried at the Plantation tasting event. Was shocked at how easy it was to drink at this proof. Shows what the extra aging can do to help mellow over proof rums. Won’t be waiting in line to purchase but glad I tried it.

Den overproof fra plantation egner sig bedst til cocktail. Jeg syntes den mangler en del på finish

I have been messing around with Tiki cocktails for a while (Covid-19 hobby?) and decided to give this one a try when I saw some recipes calling for a dark, overproof rum. This is actually really versatile and fun to use in small doses. The strength and the funk can overpower a lot of things so I have been using it about 1/4 to 3/4 in recipes with a light/dark blend or just modifying drinks that are 100% unaged white with a 3 to 1 ratio with this. It ads a bit of mystery to the drinks and I am now building some of my own new recipes around its unique flavor profile. The impact it has at a very reasonable price makes it something I will always keep in my bar going forward. Unlike the Wray and Nephew Overproof I really enjoy this with neat with some water or on the rocks.

Makes for a great floater on top of a Mai Tai. A bit much on its own for me.

Molasses forward, strong on the nose, almost smokey, hits the noggin like a slice of lemon wrapped around a gold brick. There are definitely Christmasy and tropical fruit notes, the texture is rich thick and dark, the taste is sweet, sweet and sweet. All this before the aforementioned brick to the head.
