Tasty, but not quite great

Nice bronze color. On the nose are notes of exotic fruits with banana and spices with a light smoky side. In the mouth, it is very sweet, not very long. An excellent rum for cocktails.

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 one was a gift from a friend and it does not disappoint. It is average a sipping rum but will be a staple as a mixer in my cabinet. This is one I can feel confident will deliver great rum taste when mixing for friends or myself.

This was good, not my favorite from Barbados. A little darker than I normally go to, but good none the less. Funky banana flavors are typical of Plantation rums.

Bit disappointed with this one. Plantation rums are some of my favourites, not so in this particular case. Paid €26 and I hate to say it, but I'd rather have bought a cheaper dark rum like Captain Morgan Jamaican and saved a tenner.

Tento rum jsem si zakoupil na vyzkoušení, poté co jsem vánočním darem dostal degustační set od firmy Plantation. Ve vůni je zřetelně cítit pomeranč, ovšem ne tak intenzivně jako v rumu Pyrat, s něčím dalším, co nemohu úplně jasně definovat, možná hořká čokoláda, ale nejsem si úplně jist. Také není tak sladký a to je možná to co mi zatím moc nechutná, ačkoliv mám rád i jiné rumy, které nejsou sladké vůbec. Uvidíme až jej budu ochutnávat znovu, třeba si k němu najdu cestu. Prozatím mi až tak moc nechutná a i po několika malých doušcích mi silně připomíná nedobrý český Božkov Tuzemák, jen malinko voňavější.
My weekly go to rum. I prefer this rum for dark and stormy. Great ester flavors. Quality Drop For the price

Not too strong, smooth. Lots of flavor after. Overall nice
Parce qu'il bien commencer quelque part! Rhum avec une couleur doré orangé. Goût avec un peu de vanille et le zeste d'orange. Excellent en rhum cola.

Der Plantation Original Dark ist ein drei Jahre gereifter Blend aus Trinidad und Jamaica und hat 40% Alkohol Anteil. Ich habe den Rum pur verkostet und war überrascht das er trinkbar ist. Etwas Süße, Rauch, aber auch extrem kurz und klarer Alkohol schwingt mit. Habe auch einen Freund kosten lassen, welcher den Rum wesentlich teurer eingeschätzt hat.
Am Ende aber doch eher zum Mixen. Irgendwie etwas zwischen dem 3Star von Plantation und dem Havana Club 7. Ist lecker in Cola obwohl ich hier die anderen genannten oder den etwas teureren Grand Reserva besser finde. Aber für ca 15Euro macht man hier nichts falsch. Ich persönlich würde aber zum Mixen eher den 3 Star kaufen. Und zum sippen... guckt euch einfach mein Cabinet an.
The Plantation Original Dark is a three-year mature blend from Trinidad and Jamaica and has 40% alcohol content. I tasted the rum oure and was surprised that it is somehow drinkable. Some sweet, smoke, but also extremely short and clear alcohol resonates. I also had a friend who valued the rum much more expensive.
In the end, however, it's more for mixing. Somehow something between the 3Star of Plantation and the Havana Club 7. It's delicious in Coke although I find the others mentioned here or the slightly more expensive Grand Reserva better. But for about 15Euros you don't do anything wrong here. Personally, however, I would rather buy the 3 star for mixing. And for sipping... u know... see my Cabinet.

The worst plantation 4 out of 10

I was really dissapointed. I have not expected much, but I have found the taste really weird. Coke had to save it.
