Plantation Overproof O.F.T.D.

Dejligt blend, og med 69% er der godt med smæk på. Smager godt, og den er ikke for voldsom.

Nose: As expected, it comes in really hot. After giving it some time in the glass, more nuances are clearer: top notes of overripe saba bananas, banoffee pudding, and cherry stalks. Alongside more of the ethanol come hints of cacao nibs, dried plums, and burnt lemongrass. After bringing the ABV down to 50-55%, there's a steady yet rich parade of toffee, sesame oil, caramelized bananas, and cinnamon. There's also a refreshing sweetness coming in, alongside light-roast coffee, blueberry spread, and a kind of spice that I can't put my finger on - maybe turmeric?

Palate: Charred wood, light olive oil, and chocolate glaze edge out the muddle of flavors that follow due to the ethanol content. WIth water, the flavors are much more enjoyable. Blueberries, vanilla, still some bananas (grilled, this time), and a quiet hit of shaved coconut. The Jamaican funk is the most interesting part in its character.

Finish: Bitter oak and fades away quickly.

Funky, spicy, and incredibly smooth, and that for 69% alcohol. Great for mixing and surprisingly easy for sipping!

Bang, this is some real deal. It has some spices and kick to it, but the taste of old leather and old oak is sooo long, the aftertaste is so nice, I don't want to sip again.

This rum is my siren call. Strong, sweet, and packs a punch

69% is spicy and still able to taste the flavour in the rum. Pretty good stuff

Fireeeeeee in the hooooole! Very, very good with 25% tonic water

Bought it for blending and cask finishing. Recognizable added sugar, not so strong burn with tones of oak in body and aftertaste. I would prefer to mix it or cask it's but still drinkable itself.

Good spiced rum but level of alcohol 69% kills the taste on the tongue. I think its good stuff for rum based drinks to pull up the %

Strong notes of burnt caramel and clove initially. Transitions into bold oaky dried fruit with a nice hogo funkiness to balance it out. Certainly a good amount of heat but theres so much flavor competing for attention, it oddly sort of just adds to the experience. Certainly nothing subtle about this rum and dangerously easy to drink over ice.
