Sipped neat with plenty of air, this column-still Saint Lucia leans into burnt sugar, caramel and roasted coffee, with clove and pepper spice and a touch of glue. Several tasters find it atypical for the island — closer to a heavy Spanish-style rum than the pot-still St. Lucias they know. Give it fifteen minutes to open and the ripe peach and cherry come forward.
The community says- Burnt sugar depth

How does Plantation Extrême No. 4 2007 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Spicy, caramel-heavy column St. Lucia Well-liked but rarely loved. Most call it tasty and spicy with concentrated caramel, though many feel it lacks the concentration and dirty depth of St. Lucia's pot-still bottlings, and the finish rides on alcohol.

Top notch / interesting column rum. While I do prefer St Lucia‘s Pot Still rums, I’m surprised how much I enjoy this one.

What a difference from other good rums from Lucia! This tastes more like a mediocre Spanish. Probably it is continental matured?!
Review by mto75
Discovered something else from the back sample boxes...11 years tropical + 2 continental (in a cognac cask), first impression on the nose: quite caramel-sweet, café au lait / cappuccino, creamy. Strong on the palate, roasted, burnt sugar, cask. It's somehow very drinkable and tasty, but it doesn't quite meet the high expectations of a Plantation Extreme, it lacks sophistication and complexity
Review by Maxence
Very surprising St. Lucia with similarities to some Caroni profiles like burnt caramel, tropical fruits, coffee or menthol. Alcohol is perfectly integrated as well. A very good and underrated rum in my opinion.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I just returned from a luxury tasting I was invited to and I'm actually a bit tipsy this time because all the rums had a high proof. This tasting was Plantation extreme only and this is the third one of the six. This one was far better than the previous one. It may be an atypical Saint Lucia rum, but it balances pretty well. Leave in the glass for a while to get all the flawours. Price to quality is OK.
Review by Mirco
Beautiful Lucia, but it still can't outdo other Masters Selection etc.. I miss the heavy, dirty notes and some power
Review by Rodolphe
A ste Lucie dominated by the woody profile of a Bourbon cask. It reminds me of the 2005, only more powerful. The nose is dominated by roasted nuts, tobacco, a veil of solvent, almond and a little milk chocolate. On the palate, it's a little livelier, with some fruit not far behind but struggling to make itself heard... It's still a very good gourmet rum, but for the same price it's not what I'd buy on Ste Lucie.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Exciting St. Lucia and really easy to drink! Little smoke, but lots of fruit and spice and acacia honey.
Review by MarcT
Good, but not perfect. It's like a very intense Spanish style, with lots of wood ibfluence and Spices. You have to let this breathe a while, to be able getting the fruitier components behind the alcoholic burn. Also, this takes well to some additional water.
Review by Frank
2nd preparation for the 10th GRF in Berlin Nose: delicious, spicy, dark-fruity, cherry with plum and some grape. A heavy alcoholic sweetness of port and bourbon. Also maple syrup. Damp tobacco and slightly leathery. Scented wood. Palate: full and heavy, with a woody sweetness. Fruity-spicy with clove and tropical fruits. Caramel and again some tobacco. Blackberry and cassis at the back. Overall it's too sweet for me, but has an interesting heaviness and aroma density.
Review by Manuel
Very interesting and rounded rum from Saint Lucia. Very spicy and slightly sweet on the nose and taste. Pleasant aromas of glue join in. The finish is rather intense and long. Clear recommendation.
Review by Alexander Rasch
Very exciting. Differs from other bottlings from Saint Lucia. In the finish really nice dry and astringent. Otherwise, I somehow missing something that highlights the rum for the price.
Review by TheJona'Spirits
👃 You find the quite classic combination of burnt wood, caramel, bourbon barrel vanilla accompanied by light roasting of coffee and cocoa. Multiple fruity notes, tropical (mango), citrus (orange), red fruits (cherry), some dried fruits from the Cognac barrel. Touches of light glue. A pleasant, concise and enjoyable nose. 😋 Lots of concentrated flavors coming from the barrels. Woody and burnt sugar, homemade vanilla caramel cream, peppery spices. I generally find the same fruits as on the nose. Citrus bitterness in the background. Good drinkability considering the ABV. ⛳ The weak point of this selection. The markers decrease too quickly compared to the alcohol level. Alcohol heat, dry and spicy wood, not very pleasant bitterness, vanilla, dark chocolate, light caramel, caramelized fruit, burnt barrel, blond tobacco. 💡 Like many, I prefer the rums of Sainte Lucia distilled from Vendôme pot stills. Surprisingly, this column rum comes close even if it lacks a bit more pep, olfactory concentration and complexity to deserve a better score. 📝 It should definitely please rum lovers who want to discover new more intense rum horizons with more flavors thanks to a high ABV.
Review by Leo Krüper
Very pleasing and pleasant. But thereby also almost boring and consistent. The price is in no way justified for me.
Review by Christopher Morrison
Surprising, very focused on spices, cinnamon, sour candy, bubble gum
Review by Adrian Wahl
Tasty, but doesn't excite me.
Review by Ayc
Very alcoholic on the first nose. But after 15 minutes of opening, nice spicy notes appear, white pepper, light cinnamon. After 5 more minutes, you start to get ripe peach fruits, raspberry compote, very very subtle slightly dirty notes? (a bit heavy tdl). On the palate, the first sip was nice but the more you return, the more the lack of concentration is felt, the length is mostly carried by the alcohol, which is a shame, there's also an acidity that does the job. It remains a perfectly decent rum.
Review by Thomas Renoud
Nose : probably 100% column still, no orange leather that I usually get from Pot Still. Mouth : Oily and concentrated caramel burnt sugar. Very pleasant. Final : medium long

Expert review by Zucker und Zeste
This bottling shows the differences in the distillation of the still. This rum reminds me more of a Spaniard.
Expert review by The Dunder Hut
St. Lucia World Cup Tasting Unfortunately, the nose here retreats a lot in favor of a Cognac cask in which this rum was aged. At first, nothing extreme on the nose.. On the palate, initially confusingly hard. In the initial attack I miss the rum and afterwards there is only very little brown sugar and molasses, Spanish brandy felt. Really shocking for the price.
