It offers a surprising contrast to the sweetness, bringing a complexity that makes each sip an adventure.
Finish: The Plantation Barbados Grande Reserve finishes on a medium-long, chocolaty note. Its flavors recede swiftly, leaving just a hint of its captivating blend to linger on the palate.

It offers a remarkable taste profile that makes it a versatile choice for aperitifs or classic cocktails, such as the Mai Tai or a Daquiri. Its intriguing array of flavors, coupled with its relative lightness for a 5-year-old rum, earns it a well-deserved 7/10 rating.
