Plantation 2000 Trinidad

Nice rum, with a smoky, woody profile, and some caramel, flowers and spices too. Taste doesn't quite live up to the nose though.

Beautiful light gold color. The nose is about solvents, exotic fruits like pineapple. We find the markers Caroni since it is a rum that comes from this distillery. There is also a characteristic smoke. On the palate, it is very sweet and round, very greedy. Candied fruit, plums but also butter, waffles. A final not very long with a light oak and smoke. Pretty rum.

Goldenes Honiggelb im Glas.
Im der Nase tief und schwer, Toffee, dunkle Schokolade, gebranntes Karamell und leichte Holznuancen.
Im Gaumen sehr angenehm weich, Karamell und Schokolade lullen die Zunge ein, frische Kräuter und eine Meeresbriese runden das ganze ab.
Im Abgang wird die Zunge wieder aufgeweckt und Aromen von Gewürzen, Salz und Schokolade klingen lange nach.
Ein schöner Rum, nicht so süss, für Einsteiger und Geniesser. 7+

Golden honey yellow in the glass.
In the nose deep and heavy, toffee, dark chocolate, roasted caramel and light wood nuances.
The palate is pleasantly soft, caramel and chocolate lull the tongue, fresh herbs and a sea breeze round off the whole.
In the finish the tongue is awakened again and aromas of spices, salt and chocolate linger for a long time.
A nice rum, not so sweet, for beginners and connoisseurs. 7+

Tried the Plantation Trinidad 2000 and one word to describe it is 'mellow'. Smell has a surprisingly strong alcohol to it, but the flavor profile is very bleak and hardly any burn at the end. Mellow like I said.

The fruit, that im not entirely sure is citrus, is very faint and over powered by a nice caramel flavour. The white pepper comes in at the end and during the burn. Leaves a pleasant coating on the tongue

Mild, sweet, spicy. Interesting hint of cacao in the nose. Good value. Yummy!

Oöppnad...........................................

This is a decent rum with an average taste. The aroma is sweet. The drink is moderately smooth. The dominant flavor is sharp and nutty. There's a bit of caramel and flower in there too. The round finish is the highlight of this one. This could be a sipper or a mixer.

I taste a hint of peach. Comes in very light, fruity and crisp.

Great aromas, but unfortunately the tastes aren't near as good. Can taste the alcohol, and although consecutive sips reduces the burn and it starts to sweeten out, there are just a lot of better rums in this price point.
