Issu de l'assemblage de différents rhums de la Barbade vieillis en fûts de bourbon dans les Caraïbes, puis affinés dans de vieux fûts de chêne français au château de Bonbonnet. Son nez gourmand, typique du style de la Barbade, révèle des notes de coco grillé, de fudge et de vanille boisée.

Au niveau du prix, c'est clair que c'est imbattable pour une "bonne qualité", mais j'ai été un peu surpris par ce Plantation que j'imaginais plus rond en bouche. Il n'est certes pas mauvais, à avoir dans son bar si on aime un vieux rhum de base.

Un bon rhum, trés parfumé, bon goût de vanille, je le recommande.

This rum comes has a great presentation, with it's twine rope ladder packaging, and I had high expectations with its double aging (Barbados and France) process... The rum is a light golden amber color, with only a hint of sweetness and alcohol in its scent. It has a mild caramel - citrus flavour with a gentle burn. Less complex in colour and flavour than I expected, however it makes a great light refreshing Rum and Cola!

I got this rum for like 4 or 5 years ago, just wanted something nice and not too expensive to mix with ginger ale and lime but I had a sip before mixing and damn it was sublime. It was the first aged rum I've tried and I loved it from the first sip. Lots of arrack, toffee, caramel, vanilla. Medium+ sweet.
Back then it was below $30 here in sweden and now it's over $35 (yeah alcohol is expensive here). Still worth it of course even though I don't buy it anymore. It's still a solid nice rum to sip but now I've realized that there is so much more great rum out there.

I always forget how much I like this rum, it's like an old friend that I forget how much I miss. Nose is butterscotch and vanilla, slightly fruity. Taste is medium spice, high sweetness, and same vanilla notes as nose continue. Finish is a lingering medium.
This really is a winning rum. Not overpriced or hugely aged, but really delivers a great experience. Highly recommended on your shelf.

He XO stuffs little bro... Good flavour - coconut, dried fruit and banana with a aesthetically pleasing bottle. Not amazing straight but, a quality mixer. Similar to Mount Gay Eclipse but, lighter.

A very solid tasting rum. I find I can sip it neat, or on a few rocks. Trying to be consistent with my reviews, I just gaveCruzan a 7; this one gets 8 for a taste I like at about $23 per bottle.

This one's an instant favorite! Nose has slight notes caramel, along with spices and skins of tropical fruit (pineapple and papaya come to mind.) Much of the same comes through in the mouth, with the caramel and fruit becoming more pronounced. Overall, not too sweet and taste is rather light. Is this rum anything mind-blowingly special? Nope. But it serves as an easy sipper, a great mixer, and is light on the wallet, which is really all you need sometimes!
