This isn’t an typical rum. Don’t drink to fast from the bottle. Let the little overproof alcohol vapour. The taste widens when time go by. I can taste the plantation xo in it. Still a little dryer more fruits in it. The dry fruits does me think more to cognac where this rum is aged 2 years after 11 years in Barbados. If u like dry rums or like cognac this would be for you. Not the best rum, but it’s something special.

This is a dryer rum than I typically prefer, but the reason for my 6 isn’t the dryness - it’s the bitter, grassy, astringent taste and even stronger aftertaste that lasts quite a while. I get more bourbon hints than cognac, quite strong black licorice after a few minutes breathing and a cube of ice.

While it’s not my cut of tea sipping, I absolutely love it mixed with Coke - even though it’s 13 yrs aged to me it’s affordable enough to do so.

A bit spirty with a generally sweet and bland tone, a good rum for sipping, very good for a 13 year old rum.

New-ish to rum. This was a great selection compared to my previous rums. Dry, smooth, some spice, subtle oakyness. As other reviewers note, it benefits from a rest. I had with an ice cube and it went down great!

First in the tasting of the vintage series. Very tasteful, good aroma, could see myself being a pirate laying in the shade on a beach drinking this

Another winner especially at the price point of less than $50 USD; light fruit,, spice on the nose; smooth vanilla across the tongue along with more spice, very good with a cube of ice; if I can find it, it is another permanent in my bar.

11 + 2-3 roky stará směs Pot Still a Column Still rumů, přičemž Pot Still složka zjevně převládá, takže výsledek je až překvapivě ostrý a ovocný. U žádného Plantationu z Barbadosu jsem se s něčím podobným zatím nesetkal. Úvodní šok na okamžik připomněl Xaymacu, ale všeho, co u ní bylo přepálené, je v tomhle právě akorát. A hlavně podle očekávání (i cenové kategorie), se z toho už po pár paňácích začaly vynořovat přepestré nuance nejrozličnějších chutí i vůní - doslova každý lok chutná trochu jinak. Což je přesně to, co mám na dobrých rumech rád - s půl lahví si užijete, co panákovým barovým ochutnávačům zabere dva večery chlastání (a stojí je desetkrát tolik). Úhrnem zajímavější, než byl sice lahodný, ale nepříliš výrazný Plantation Barbados 2001. Další butylku si ale taky odpustím. Měl by být tak za 8,5 lahvičky, leč takové hodnocení tu není, tak ho trochu nadcením, když už jsem tu s ním jako první...

Very nice rum, more to a cognac, slightly alcoholic and good fruitiness

Tasted at Kill Devil Rum Club Plantation tasting at Laka Lono, 5/28/20.
Notes indicate a warming sensation, with a nice finish and the comment "this would be nice with a lime."

Sampled at the Laka Lono Rum Club tasting on 5/28/20. Grand Terroir. Clean golden color. Floral sweet aroma of honeysuckle blossoms. Big licorice flavors. Cognac notes. Finishes hot. Love it.
