How does Plantation Barbados (Château de Bonbonnet) 2005 taste?
Aggregated from 14 community reviews.
Relaxed, mildly sweet Barbados sipper A well-liked, easy-drinking Barbados with gentle sweetness, vanilla and spice, good alcohol integration and decent length. Considered pleasant and gourmand rather than memorable or complex.
Those who enjoy gently sweet, cognac-leaning Barbados rums and want a relaxed sipper with vanilla, spice and soft fruit rather than big funk or high proof intensity.
Drinkers seeking cask-strength power, very dry profiles, or fully additive-free rums; also not ideal for enthusiasts chasing high complexity or distinctive ester funk.

Review by Rado Vito
I think this Barbados is very changed by the finish. Otherwise it is very good, with long aftertaste.
Review by Mc Pirate
Belle couleur claire, nez assez gourmand sur les fruits jaunes, bouche beaucoup plus sèche avec une amertume en fin de bouche. A regoûter parce que derrière la dégustation d’un 55 degrés
