I bought this rum to add to my arsenal. It goes down easy and mixes well with pineapple or orange juice.
While still early in the (rum) game, I have yet to taste a better rum for under $30
I generally stay away from dosed rum, but this one is a go to for me. Has coconut and vanilla flavor to it. I personally love this in cola, but itโs versatile and well worth having in your possession.
Did the Plantstion Rum tasting event a few years back. Not great, but not bad for the price.
Nice color, good taste and nice finish, good drinking for night. 7/10
Pretty good, but also pretty sweet. Not a lot of depth but very smooth.
Just fine for the price I guess but now I have sampled it I wouldn't buy again.
The tasting notes on the label are laughable really with nowhere near the complexity suggested. A one dimensional sweet orange flavour with toffee and a note of coconut adding a little interest, followed by some alcohol burn. A bit crude but inoffensive, I can imagine it is much better as a mixer ...
EDIT - tasted with coke and it's pretty decent.
At this level I would happily pay a little more for the extra depth of flavour from Diplomatico Reserva.

Great Quality, Flavor and Value in a Dark Rum

This is my go-to dark rum, rivaled in terms of quality-for-value only by Haiti's Rhum Barbancourt Five-Star. Plantation 5-Year Barbados rum is a fine Bajan offering from the house of Cognac Ferrand. The rum is aged for three to four years in bourbon casks in Barbados and is then shipped to France for a period of one to two years' additional aging in casks that previously held Pierre Ferrand cognac. I don't know of any other spirits producer who goes to this amount of time and effort to produce a rum that is available at a price point of roughly $22.99 per bottle.
The nose offers hints of vanilla and caramel. The taste on the palate is smooth, but, full of molasses flavor. This is probably the best value available in a quality dark rum, this spirit excels in cocktails and makes a fantastic "Dark 'n Stormy."
