Orange peel, menthol and a whiff of modelling clay lead the nose here — fresh, fruity, a touch floral. The palate leans drier and woodier than the nose promises: roasted notes, herbs, pepper, a little medicinal edge and a light funky twist late. Most tasters land on the fruity side and call it round and balanced, though a few wanted more ABV and a longer finish.
The community says- Fruity fresh nose
- Round and balanced
- But: Short finish

Nose very fruity fresh slightly floral grassy notes. Orange and citrus fruits and some 😯 plasticine😯leather and light menthol. Interesting and delicious. Sobering on the palate at first... then a peppery fruitiness spreads slightly floral and flowery and a little perfumed, a little menthol. Alcohol perfectly integrated. Finish very short unfortunately.

On the nose still relatively fruity, in the taste then primarily roasted aromas, slightly salty, a little woody pear, spices such as ginger, green pepper and nutmeg, a lot of herbs such as sage and thyme and overall I lack the fruitiness here and he is also too woody and dry for me. For this he gets in the finish again a nice funky note with purely what has given him a few points more.
Review by DaveLamb
Good St. Lucia tradition rum, both three bottles of the LMDW-selected are fascinating, I think this one and the MMW 1994 was underestimated.
Review by zabo
The Saint Lucia is more on the fruity side. Basically, however, it also has all the aromas you would expect. Nice and round. Still, not really a highlight, I've had better ones in my glass.

Palate Oily, wood, faint smoke, dried fruit, orange, faint herbs, light mint, light medicinal, faint salt, olive. Finish Medium to long, wood, spice, orange, faint chocolate, light licorice, light salty.
Review by Johannes
Nice and round, more on the fruity side!
Review by Serge
Tasted against the Plantation St. Lucia 2007 the Nectar (rx11185) Although the Nectar has more % (always a very important feature for me), the LMDW performs better for me here. The Nectar scores with nice dirty notes on the palate and finish but has a sharp alcohol note on the nose and also pinches a bit on the palate. The LMDW is rounder and more harmonious and generally a St. Lucia on the fruitier side. Although it could use a bit more ABV.
Review by FischeJ
Nice St. Lucia. Nose slightly minty, fruity (orange), toasty. At first nothing on the palate. Initially seems very thin. When you hold it longer in the mouth, more fruit comes out, but above all spice. Minty again at the back. Nose better than palate.

Review by Hood
Plantation Saint Lucia 2010 Conquest 53.2%, 312 bottles : The nose is immediately very seductive, reminding me of the Single Cask Saint Lucia that was available at Château de Bonbonnet. Sweet, fruity, unctuous. After opening, it's even fruitier. The attack is a little lively, then it becomes oily. It reminds me of apricot, caramel and mango. It's good and very greedy. The finish is very long, yet soft and greedy. Nice, good bottle. Battle Plantation Single Cask 2021 Saint Lucia 2010 LMDW Conquest 53.2% VS Saint Lucia 2007 The Nectar 60.2% : The 2007 is a column still, while the 2010 is a pot still. One week of fermentation for both, 156 g/HL AA of esters for the former, 160 for the latter, 545 g/HL AA of volatile compounds for the former, 771 for the latter. It's hard to tell them apart, as they're so similar on the nose and palate. The same markers are present, and the column still is no match for the pot still. On the contrary, the extra 7 degrees make the 2007 a little deeper. I wouldn't pick a winner, but if someone new to Saint Lucia had to taste one of the two, I'd go for the 2010, a little more accessible, while for someone already initiated, it would be the 2007. A close match, but both very good juices.
Review by Léo Delek
Very good complex rum while remaining balanced. Plasticine and fresh notes on the nose and a slight whisky impression. On the palate, fruity candy like harlequin, smoky. Nice length.
