Plantation 3 Stars Artisanal

Tried this out recently as a replacement for Mount Gay Eclipse and I have to say it blows it out of the water. It has a great aroma and an enjoyable, satisfying, complex flavor that works perfectly in scorpion bowls. The color is a nice bonus as well, as it is less likely to contribute to the muddy color some tiki drinks can develop. This is an absolute bar staple for me now.

Personalmente, lo he dejado para mezclar, tiene bastante sabor pero no todo es el precio en un ron y aunque no pasó de los 10€, los hay bastante mejores a ese nivel.

This rum is well balanced and approachable. It’s not as flavorful as an overproof jamaican, but it has at least some depth of flavor from the blend and is extremely smooth. Solid overall rum

This $30 white rum would be perfect if you are an Appleton fan. It has a spicey Jamaican nose with ripe bananas. It can be sipped but would be best in a cocktail. I am a big fan of Plantation rums but a little too much Jamaican funk for me

Decent rum that works very well both as a mixing rum and neat.

Definitely the best white rum in its price range. A must for every bar. Taste like candy in cola. Stand between a mixer and a sipper.

Delicious sweetness. Only had 1 shot so far, but would absolutely have with the barest of other flavorings to let the rum shine thru.

It's pretty sweet with a honey after taste, not bad for basically a blanco/blonde.

I develop my profession in an area where making cocktails (except the mojito) is a rarity seen by most people with distrust. In addition, the rum-based combinations are monopolized by molasses rums of Dominican origin. I must also take into account the final price of the cocktail since the average income of my fellow citizens is clearly not among the highest in my country. All this forces me to be very careful in the selection of cocktails and rums. When I make a cocktail based on Plantation 3 stars I feel confident and my clients certainly notice that I am offering them the best of me and my bar.

Honestly, the only thing we have used this rum for so far is to make mojitos. But they were smooth, tasty and didn't taste like they were made with turpentine.
