Plantation Barbados 2014
People who like a wine-cask twist on Barbados rum tend to enjoy this one. Expect apricot, cherry and burnt sugar up front, with a red-wine finish bringing cinnamon and Christmas-spice notes. Several tasters call it a clever everyday pour. The main snag: it reads quite sweet, and the wine finish can almost cover the rum underneath.
- Apricot and cherry
- Distinct wine finish
- Easy daily sipper

How does Plantation Barbados 2014 taste?
Aggregated from 18 community reviews.
Wine-finished Barbados, fruity and quite sweet Members find it interesting and easy-going, with a strong red-wine-cask finish over apricot and spice. Common gripe: noticeably sweet, and that finish nearly overshadows the rum itself.

Review by RumTaTa
Sehr interessanter milder Rum. Das Finish im Rotweinfass ist sehr deutlich und überlagert die Rumaromen schon fast zu stark. Ein schöner Alltagsrum: nicht zu anstrengend aber raffiniert und komplex.
Review by Christian Rudt
Ein schöner Rum mit tollem Wein Finish. Angenehme Mischung aus Frucht und Würze in der Nase. Am Gaumen schöne Aprikose, der Abgang dann Recht weich und trocken, hier wirkt das Wein Finish am deutlichsten. Etwas streng zum Schluss.
Review by Thunderbird
In der Nase sehr vielseitig von warm fruchtig süß bis zu ledrig Schuhwachsartig! Am Gaumen zunächst sehr süß und fruchtig und dann irgendwie speckig! Ein interessanter Rum, mir aber deutlich zu süß

Review by Johannes
Den finde ich interessant. Man schmeckt den Barbados Rum, der aber durch das Finish einen guten Mix aus Wein, Zimt, Kirsche und weihnachtlichen Gewürzen erhält.
Review by mto75
ähnliche Lebkuchen-Nase wie der Multi Island, insgesamt jedoch noch ein wenig intensiver.
