For the price you can buy it blind. The reserva 2000 will have less strength but more flavor. The XO is one of my favorite by combining both strentgh and all flavors

I purchased this rum after reading the reviews, expecting it to be a good deal for the money it costs.
Unfortunately, I was disappointed. This rum is very weak in taste, to the point that after 10 minutes in a glass with ice it feels like you drink water only with some alcohol.
Furthermore, the cognac "touch" they claim to give this rum a "special" character, is not for every one, be warned! For me personally, I found the cognac scent not to agree with the rum philosophy.

Best value rum out there, you can drink it neat or with water or ice or a squeeze of lime and you'll enjoy it. Better yet, knock down a rum and coke or your drink of choice and have one of the finest quality mixers that isn't definitively better neat you can imagine. A full flavor profile that balances alcohol and sweetness deftly, it is versatile and a great deal. Really won't beat it for a mixer.

Vanilla and toffee = sugar added to enhance the flavor. Hard to take this rum too seriously.

Very smooth, sweet and refined. Hints of coconut and vanilla. Almost sipping rum.

This is the smoothest rum I've enjoyed. It lacks complexity but is an easy drinker.

This was my introduction to Plantation. Going into it I had read that their rums run on the sweeter side. While this is true, I found the sweetness on this one blending quite well with the other flavors of vanilla sugar, coconut, and cinnamon. Not a ton of complexity or surprises, but a nice sipper nonetheless.

Rhum Plantation d’entrée de gamme. Sur des arômes de fruités, tropicaux et cannelle. Assez simple, bien pour le prix.
