A good aged rum. As good as nearly all Plantation offerings I’ve had.

The young brother of XO, who doesn't have to worry about his quality. It is a pleasant combination of taste, aroma and sweetness.
Good looking bottle, nice cork, good nose, little funk, good mixer.

This is definitely a lighter rum. It doesn't hit quite the same as some other aged rums. The presentation on the bottle is lovely and the price point is a plus as well.
As far as the taste, this is a dry rum, more along the lines of Mount Gay, subtle notes of coconut, but it is more hot than it is smooth, so drinking this one neat is a little rough.

Plantation Barbados 5 can keep your guns blazing while you head to the Rum Dump for more big gun ammo. I'll still pour this Plant offering on the rocks. It's saved me on more than one vacation when Bobo has no 20 for the Big KINhuna.

Výborná vyváženosť 8 out of 10

Po Doorly's 5Y, ktorý mi pre svoju suchosť príliš nesadol, skúšam ďalší Barbados. Krásna fľaša s tradičným uzlovaným opletom, pravý korok v hrdle. Farba podobne ako pri skôr uvedenom veľmi svieža, s oranžovým nádychom. Bude to opäť suchý nedosladzovaný rum?
Vôňa veľmi príjemná, konečne cítim v pozadí aj citrusy. Chuťovo veľmi jemný rum, v tele cítiť mnoho tónov, žiadny príliš nevyčnieva, naozaj z každého rožku trošku. Pri doznievaní zachytávam med, vanilku, teda aj záver veľmi jemný a príjemný. Dokonalá vyváženosť! Toto je presne druh, ktorý absolútne vyhovuje všetkým mojim chuťovým pohárikom. Cena je pritom viac než prijateľná. Bravo, už sa nemôžem dočkať ochutnávky ďalších súrodencov...a že ich má táto značka požehnane! ;)
