Simple but good...
Review by Tobin
A very nice natural sweetness - not sticky caramel, but nice honey and surprisingly fruity. Not complex, but still like again...
Review by Hans-Peter Jank
Fruchtig, süß, frisch und angenehm zu trinken.
Review by heckto🥃
Ein fruchtig süßer Einsteigerrum mit Vanille-,Schokoladen- und Honignoten. Er ist nicht sonderlich komplex aber trotzdem gut zu trinken. Im Abgang kommt ein leicht nussiges Rostaroma dazu. Ganz OK aber es gibt bessere dieser Marke.
Review by Léo Delek
J'ai la canelle, les fruits tropicaux mur, de la coco, du noyau de cerise et la vanille qui prend le dessus en bouche. Me fait bcp penser au chairmann's reserve classique pu même à un jamaicain

Review by Gregor
A little too sweet and also flat. Am used to much better from plantation
Review by Timo Groeger
Store visit Rum Paradise Hamburg April 2025. Here is a rather poor Plantation. On the nose we have honey, vanilla and wood. Also honey and vanilla on the palate, but also quite fruity. However, I find the alcohol disturbing.
Review by Daniel
Nase: Intensität lässt zu wünschen übrig, Vanille und die dezenten Nussaromen überwiegen. Gaumen: milder sehr würziger Einstieg, Holz. Danach setzen sich bittere und pfefferige Noten vermehrt durch. Abgang: Ganz dezent Nussaromen zu vernehmen. Bitterkeit hält sich und leichte Fruchtnoten mischen sich dazu. Fazit: Wenig spannender Rum, der vor allem für Würze steht.
Review by Stefan Persson
Had it after a better dinner at Såstaholms castle outside Stockholm. It’s a little better than OK, but I will not buy it cause I’ve decided to avoid Plantation/Plantarey in the future because of how they act about GI’s.
