This is a rum that tasted more like rum than it does Pineapple when sipping neat and no other rum is around. Its got a nice flavor to it and the aroma at first is stronger to pineapple than the actual taste of the rum. Overall a nice sipper I would not really mix this at all personally. Very smooth rum with a very slight kick and moderate finish.
Though if you drink a few pure rums first then have this, the pineapple really comes to life on the palate and its much more intense.
This is some delicious stuff. The pineapple flavor and aroma are there, but in perfect proportion to the rum itself, so it doesn't at all taste like rum-flavored pineapple juice. It has just enough sweetness and fruity goodness without overpowering the rum. Straight up all the way. Very easy to sip your way through half a bottle before you realize that you only have half a bottle left....
What an interesting mix. The pineapple aroma and flavor come through, without being overpowering. It's not overly sweet to my mouth either. I couldn't just sip it though, something comes through on the aftertaste to me. An ice cube improves it for me. Even better mixed. Gives coke a delicious kick.
Bought a case last summer while in NYC for a short vacation. A lot of expectations after following and reading on the birth, or re-birth I should say of the Pineapple Rum. And it does not disappoint.
It is like mentioned elsewhere a lot more rum forward than pineapple. The nose is classic aged rum full of spices and toffee, with at first a quite subtle pineapple rinds note. Taste is generous. Compared to the Original Dark which it it is based on, this a lot longer, with the pineapple giving it a delicious round buttery finish. And then the pineapple just grows on you. Letting it breath will unleash the pineapple in a luscious way.
My friend and I each drank a bottle while in NYC, roaming around with our flasks filled up with it. I mixes incredably well, in lattes for breakfast, and especially with the local Lime Rickey, for of safe street sipping new classic drink: The Pineapple Rickey.
Not sipping the stuff all day was the toughest thing returning back home after this short vacation. You live in the US? Consider yourself blessed and seek it. Great folks at Ferrand/ Plantation are currently concocting a new batch of 50K+ bottles so hopefully it will become more widely available. Unfortunately it won't be available here in Quebec for 2016.
Thank you Plantation!
Tried this straight and on the rocks and wasn't a huge fan, but found that Stiggin's Piña brings the sexy back to some old rum cocktails. When drinking it neat, I'm not sure if it was the combination of the Plantation Dark and White that caused a slight bitterness or the addition of pineapple. The fruit flavor is subtle but pleasant. You can see how "infused" is way better than "added flavor". By no means a typical flavored rum.
I found this to make for an incredible Dark 'N' Stormy, since the pineapple paired nicely with the ginger. I will keep this on heavy rotation at home.
Real pineapple and not overpowering. This isn't a flavored party rum. It's nice to sip on, smooth and unique.
Habe den rum pur und on the rock's getrunken. Überzeugt mich beides nicht so trifft nicht 100% meinen geschmack aber in Cocktails passt er super gut. Top
I've just tasted it! This ron is quite sweet and I like thé pineapple! Really particular!
What all flavored rums should aspire to be. Pineapple nose that is beautiful but not overpowering. Pineapple palate that is true and in no way chemical tasting. A true revelation.
The nose is sweet but not overly so.
"Smells very much of fresh pineapple as opposed to sweetened tinned pineapple."

Sugar: 16 to 20 gpl. A rum recreated from a Dickens literary character, this rum has an interesting story regarding the origin and recipe on the labels. That uniqueness continues with the aroma and taste. At first pour you get the smell of a quality aged dark Plantation brand rum with a trace of pineapple. A bit of sweetness with some heat and lots of flavor. However in the background there is a slightly bitter trace of the macerated pineapple used in creating the rum. That stops it from being a sipping rum for me. If you are looking for a rum to mix with any drink recipe that calls for tropical juices, then this is the one to use! It makes a great Pina Colada. It's worth a try.
