Plantation Barbados 5-Year

Kjøpt på polet

Clear bright Amber in colour. A light nose with hints of toasted sugars. A perfectly balanced flavour with a bit of sweetness, age and vanilla. Very smooth neat and better without ice. At $45 Can, i expected a mixer but got much more. I bet it is an excellent mixer too.

A rum that has a lighter amber rum mouthfeel than an aged dark rum, this complements any citrus juice like orange or pineapple ( or even 5 Alive ) especially if you add in some 7-Up or Sprite and ice - when mixed right, it's smoothness is just heavenly. A little orange zest in its flavors as well as a little caramel/butterscotch sweetness. Good summertime rum, when you're not up for anything too heavy.

An easy drink from start to finish whether neat or mixed. A great value and a must have for the liquor cabinet.

Lækker rom som er lidt anderledes sød. Jeg kan godt lide denne flaske.

This will be my new daily sipper. For a $25 dollar bottle of rum, you cant go wrong with this one. Not sweetened, and not too sharp on the nose. Just a well balanced rum for a really good price.

Use of cognac barrel in finishing this rum makes this little different. Very easy to enjoy and taste is mature enough to sip this neat. I like this easy going rum.

Très bon et abordable avec des notes de cassonade un de mes préféré plantation jusqu'à date !

This is a dryer version of the 20th anniversary version.
I loved the 20th and really liked this one.
Some may even prefere it since it is less sweet. In anyway it is a great value for money.

Nice and smooth, good flavour. You probably won't buy this one again after tasting the XO 20th anniverary.
