Review by Jadran Huys
A short bite of Jamaican funkiness soon turns into sweet orange/mandarin, a combo that definitely works for me.
Review by zabo
First of all, a big thank you to SaibotZtar for this awesome mega-split from Plantation with some really rare bottlings. I'm honestly very excited about what Plantation can do now.
Review by Buddudharma
Auch hier ein schön ausbalancierter LP, hat genug Power, ist trotzdem einfach zu trinken. Orangenwein-Finish hätte ich blind nicht rausgeschmeckt.
Review by DomM
On the nose the bottling shows a nice combination of fruity notes and wood. Quite balanced and enjoyable. Compared to other releases with (predominant tropical aging), this one is way less funky/ester heavy on the nose than I expected for a VRW. The „Orange Wine“ is detectable on the nose but imo in no way overwhelming. Similar on the palate: very well balanced with fruits and wood. Again not very funky. The Orange notes are showing up on the finish a bit more but are otherwise well integrated into the mix.
Review by Chrischi78
Schöne Abfüllung mit zuverlässiger Qualität. Reife, tropische Fruchtnoten – Banane, Mango und ein Hauch Orange – treffen auf eine angenehme Fasswürze. Tendenziell etwas süßer im Profil. Für mehr Punkte fehlt mir ein wenig Tiefe und Vielschichtigkeit, aber insgesamt ein angenehmer Rum für entspannte Abende.
Review by Serge
I really like the VRW Mark, but this one doesn't quite convince me. Especially the sweetness that builds up seems a bit strange to me. Also too much orange at the back. Good, but there are much better ones.
Review by Joël
Wird langsam besser, kann mich einfach selten für Sachen deutlich unter 60% begeistern, es fehlt einfach die Komplexität.
Review by Djehey
Jamaica finishes with a sweet orange.A little too sweet for my taste.
Review by Mirco
Tolle Abfüllung in solider Qualität. Tropische Früchte wie Banane, Mango und Orange gepaar mit schönem Holz/Fass Einfluss, eher auf der süssen Seite. Für eine bessere Bewertung fehlt mir etwas Komplexität.
