Really easy drinking whether neat or on the rocks. The flavor also lends extremely well to hot buttered rum. It has notes of raisins, dried fruits, and caramel. One I would definitely always keep on hand.
I certify this review is my own opinion and that I do not have a professional affiliation with Diplomatico.
Poměr ceny / kvality je velmi dobrý. Není to na skleničku k rozjímaní, ale za tu cenu se to chlastá parádně.
All of the Plantation rums are good, and bring great value, since they are not expensive.
For some reason or another MG eclipse was my first rum a couple of years ago and I was not impressed. I figured I would give rum another try earlier this year and bought Plantation 5 year and have been on a rum run ever since. Recently bought my 2nd bottle just because I have tried many different rums since then and wanted to get back to where it all started from and to post the most fair rating I could, not by relaying on past memory. I have to credit this rum for my love of rums today. Between this and Stades No. 8 I know of no other rum that can beat the value - under $25. If anyone reads this and can offer a better value rum than this, please let me know.
The Plantation Grande Reserve 5 is a light coloured, aromatic rum with loads of subtleties to its flavour profile. Be warned though; said subtle flavours will be totally lost if you dare to use this as a mixer. Neat, it's fantastic; a proper sipper that you'll really enjoy. Mixed, it disappears into the background as though it's just some bland, generic product—which it DEFINITELY isn't—and tragically loses everything you enjoyed about it. I'll certainly get this again. Thumbs up.

Obrázek staršího balení s nápisem "Grande Reserve" použitý momentálně v záhlaví je velmi zavádějící a svádí k záměně s https://www.rumratings.com/brands/3735-plantation-barbados-grande-reserve.3735-plantation-barbados-grande-reserve. Je tedy celkem pravděpodobné (a místy zcela zjevné), že řada hodnocení zde se ve skutečnosti týká právě jeho, nikoli 5-Year, což se ostatně původně na poprvé podařilo i mně.
Nově balení je podstatně srozumitelnější - a vskutku: jde po všech stránkách o úplně jiný destilát. Pokud očekáváte nějaké vylepšené "Grande Reserve", budete zklamáni stejně jako jsem byl zklamán já. Vylepšené "Grande Reserve" je Plantation XO. Tohle je spíš něco jako vylepšený Original Dark. Nicméně ten si znova určitě pořídím (stejně jako Grande Reserve), zatímco tohle zcela určitě už víckrát ne.
Přesto nejde o úplně nezajímavou kořalku. Zejména s ohledem na deklarovaný původ z Barbadosu je v chuti velmi neobvykle ovocná, zcela nepodobná jakémukoli rumu z tohoto ostrova, jaký jsem kdy pil. Osobně mě ale (na rozdíl třeba od ovocností podobného Plantation Guatemala & Belize) příliš nezaujal, ale ani neurazil. Nicméně od Ferrandů jsem se naučil čekat jaksi víc než jen neurážlivost...
