Plantation Original Dark Double Aged Trinidad & Jamaica

Classic bittersweet Carribbean double aged rum. I needed to add ice and a slice of lime to really appreciate it. Reasonably priced I think this rum is great in all the classic rum cocktails. Has a slight Smokey aftertaste.

Assemblage de rhums de mélasse de la Barbade (léger) et de Jamaïque (aromatique), ce rhum titre 40°.
Design : Jolie bouteille avec une étiquette qui évoque les vieilles cartes marines. Le rhum a une couleur ambre foncé.
Nez : parfumé, caramel, épices
Dégustation : arômes et lourdeur du rhum jamaïcain suivis par des nuances plus légères des rhums de la Barbade, avec une bonne dose de caramel et de fumé, le résultat est surprenant mais agréable.
Finale : longue, arrière goût de réglisse qui colle au palais.
Ce 1er essai avec un rhum 'plantation' est très agréable, si c'était une bière, ce serait une stout ou une guiness.

I love the bold flavor. Still kind of new to rum. But i love this as a sipping rum. Not my choice for a mixer. I love the color. Aroma could be better. I found it on sale. Which is why i picked it up. So glad i did.

Beautiful aromas of prunes and nuts. On the sweeter side, gorgeous colour. $30CAD at SAQ. Decent legs, could be better. Better than Plantation Grande Reserve for $28 at LCBO due to its complexity.

A better mixer rather than a sipper. But you already knew that, didn't you?

Great rum for mixing drinks, Dark and stormy's, rum and coke, really anything.

Also good for just drinking straight if you want rum but not excessive sweetness like Zaya

Rich caramel and baking spice... is it sweetened with added sugar??? Regardless, it stands out in most any mix calling for a dark. Recommended.

Very smooth and delicate with good tones of dark rum.

I wasn't expecting much but was very surprised, lovely full flavour. Either mixed or sipped this is a very nice rum

This is a great buy: affordable (but not cheap) and tasty. Bit exactly a great sipper, very aromatic. To me (not exactly an experienced drinker) it hints most strongly towards raisins.

This is actually a pretty nice rum and it's big upside is you can find it in box chain grocers and the like in that 19.99 range. In a pinch it will do and then some. Mixes well but has a nice deep, mellow flavor which makes it more then enjoyable to sip with a good cigar.
