I find nothing at all wrong with this rum. It has minimal sugar. No Solera which people complain about. It doesnโ€™t just taste like oak wood tea. Itโ€™s 40% which is fine. Iโ€™m not using it to strip paint. Itโ€™s finished off in France. I love cognac. It has a beautiful color, nose and palate. I love it. Even in the morning neat. Like now. Iโ€™ve had it in my Stok cold brew coffee and milk which is also fine. After trying American whiskeys, scotches, Irish whiskeys and other rums, this is at the moment top of my list.

I'm a wimp. I gag a bit when I drink most rums straight and my benchmark for a superb rum is one like this. It goes down like silk, very sweet and smooth with a tasty vanilla flavor. This is definitely in my top 10 rums

Very tasty, fresh and not too heavy. My favorite mid aged rum.
And it works also with coke very well. Just Fantastic and better than most heavy/burbon tasting rums.

Can have this anytime day or night. Beautiful mix. Great all alone with ice or a splash of dark cola. Real treat to drink.

Love this Rum. Very smooth, smoky and almost has a hint of scotch taste to it.

It's been said many times, but I'll repeat it: What a value! A lovely amber color, this gentle nectar goes down smoothly and gives your tongue a nice hug. It is well-balanced and flavorful and has a nice love bite. Many rums at similar prices evoke the feeling of being at the gas pump, while this one truly does take you somewhere sunny and warm, and not on a riptide, but on the lazy river. This may be my new go-to for June day-sipping by a turquoise pool, and I would even love to just stare at the bottle if I couldn't drink it. Just as Siouxsie Sioux's fishnets make her all the more goth and all the hotter, Plantation's jute netting makes it feel all the more 'rum' and all the more attractive. Wowzers! You gotta try it.

This is one of my favorite Rums and beats most everything I've tasted under $40 a bottle except for maybe Kaniche XO.

Tasted at Kill Devil Rum Club Plantation tasting at Laka Lono 5/28/20
Notes indicate a smooth sipper with a lovely finish. Aromatic vanilla that carries on into the flavor.
