Vanilla, coconut and dried fruit on the nose, then a big peppery, spicy hit in the mouth — very classic Barbados. Most tasters love the nose more than the palate, which turns woody and a touch bitter with a short-to-medium finish. Bottled at 51.1%, the alcohol reads a little forward, so most reach for a splash of water.

How does Plantation One-Time Limited Edition 2011 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Spicy, dried-fruit Barbados with a great nose Well-liked everyday Barbados: gorgeous nutty, dried-fruit nose that the peppery, slightly bitter palate can't quite match. The finish is short and the ABV sits a bit high.

Smells brilliantly chocolaty nutty with caramel and coconut in the background. In the mouth and finish, the spices dominate: spicy, pferrerig, woody. Caramel and fruit go under, if then more chocolate. In the mouth a little too spicy for me, but otherwise very good!

My feeling is that it is quite a bit outside of what I expect from a barbados. Chocolate in the aroma, and fresh notes of green pepper. In the mouth, a hint of chocolate remains, but I give way to a spicy peppery-chilli experience.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This new release is pretty good and I like this one. I do like Barbados run and this is a really nice one. The nose is amazing and just keeps giving. Very nutty with spices and oak. The palate has a nice full body with natural sweetness and nuttyness with caramel, chocolate and nutmeg. Price to quality is very good.
Review by Johannes
A fairly standard Barbados, where you can clearly taste the column style again.
Review by Leo Krüper
Nice lightweight everyday sipper. Certainly also suitable for beginners. The bottle is beautifully presented and the price is very fair.
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Nose: Spicy, vanilla, alcohol, then somehow sour, like vinegar. Palate: first sweet, caramel, spicy, woody, peppery, bitter and thin on the finish, still sharp with alcohol. Overall okay, but unfortunately no more than that.
Review by lukasdrinkinghabits
A typical Barbados nose with predominantly dried fruits. It reminds me of a Christmas-spiced baked apple filled with rum raisins. On the palate, spicy and bitter aromas dominate together with a whisky-like grain note – the overall impression remains harmonious. After the great nose, the palate lacks some depth. This thin impression continues in the rather short finish. A nice everyday rum at a good price-performance ratio. One downside: unfortunately, the alcohol is a bit too present everywhere.
Review by Julien Ries
👃🏼The nose is quite strong in ethyl. Strongly carried on vanilla and coconut powder, you can quite nicely perceive dried exotic fruits. A bit of wood closes the nasal experience. 👅 My first impression was still a strong alcoholic presence, but actually not really on a second sip. On the contrary, a certain sweetness made me check the bottle and its added sugar content (0g). Caramel dominates, with coconut returning at the end of the palate. A fairly consensual rum that lacks breadth and complexity. Not bad though but too simple compared to the competition. 🎆 Average finish, on this caramel and that's it.
Review by HenryL
Despite the at least 50% alcohol, quite restrained on the nose, but unmistakably Barbados. There's also a bit of baked apple filled with a Dominostein and some almond slivers. Surprisingly bitter on the palate, otherwise, along with the basic Barbados tone, there are slightly sour pineapple or grapefruit notes and a slight chocolate hint. Overall, like most of the OTLs, a good upgrade from the standard bottlings at a reasonable price.
Review by ElReyTristan
You can smell the spices of a tajine scented with sweet flavors... On the palate it hits hard, it's very very spicy and pungent. It lacks a bit of roundness. Yet it's quite indulgent and you find the flavors of the first nose. Nice length at the end of the palate.
Review by Tobin
Great, Plantation really seems to be getting the hang of the One Time Editions 👌🏼
Review by Tom Buteneers
Barbados profile clearly present, sweet with spices and a bit of chocolate. Peppery throughout, but still well balanced. A tasty rum to enjoy quietly.
Review by Tomas Mileris
Recommend with a little water.
Review by Andreas Egge
Nice typical Barbados rum. Spicy, raisin, barrel and a bit of nut. The taste can't quite keep up with the very nice nose. Finish only medium length and then slightly bitter at the end. Alcohol integration is not so good. But I still like it.
Review by Han
A pleasing rum, yet with nice complexity and a touch of funkiness. Very interesting are the smell and taste of wood glue in a positive sense.
Review by Rumclub Latvia
Good first impressions about this
Review by Snorre Brouer
Less coconut and butterscotch than I usually find in rum from Barbados - although it's still present. Classic Barbados rum fruit notes is also present. The finish is short, so you gotta sip to it quite often. The cognac finish is very clear in it, which makes sence since half the age of this rum is spend in cognac casks (4,5 years). Personally, I prefer Doorlys 14 which is in the same price range. D14 is slightly more balanced when it comes to the abv, and the butterscotch notes and creamy texture makes it a real pleasure to drink - and the finish is quite long compared to this rum. If you prefer cognac over madeira finish, you might find this rum on par or even better than D14. It is without doubt a great rum when it comes to price/quality ratio.
Review by Nando70
The cold is still there... But on the nose you don't feel the harshness of the alcohol... It's even pleasant. The nose hairs appreciate it... What a beautiful softness. The floral is magical after letting your glass breathe a bit. A bit of esters come to play with the flowers in a rounded way... Yum... Can't wait for the palate... Yeah... The 51.1° are definitely there... It explodes in your mouth... Floral, fruity and peppery play together... A nice mix... Ah Barbados never disappoints. The medium-long finish perfectly completes the mouthfeel. What more to say...
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Surprisingly very dry and roasted bitter fruity Barbados rum, the grapefruit and nutmeg notes are decisive and very interesting. All in all, however, it is not round enough for me personally and a bit too astringent...
Review by Chaff
It's sooo good 😁
Review by Hans
Delicious, slight hint of Plantation XO. Round, only slightly sweet, nice aftertaste with a bit of wood. Buy!

Expert review by RumRock
Read full review ›It’s a rum more for intermediate rum fans. A beginner probably wouldn’t appreciate the price-performance ratio and for an expert it wouldn’t be interesting enough. Sales should start in the Czech Republic from October 26 and 456 bottles are available for the Czech market.
Expert review by Zucker und Zeste
Beautiful, typical Barbados rum. Spicy, raisin, cask and a little nutty. The taste can't quite keep up with the very nice nose. The finish is also only medium-bodied and then slightly bitter at the end. Alcohol retention is not so good. But I still like it.
