West Indies Plantation One-Time Limited Edition 2011
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.
The community says- Lovely nutty nose
- Classic Barbados profile
- But: Short finish

Aggregated from 84 community reviews.
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.

Review by Nando70
Le rhume est tjrs là.... Mais au nez on ne ressent pas la duretée de l'alcool... C'est même plaisant. Les poils de nez apprécient... Qu'elle belle douceur. Le floral est magique après avoir laissé un peu respiré votre verre. Un peu d'esters viennent jouer avec les fleurs tout en rondeur... Miam... Vivement la bouche... Yeah... Les 51.1° sont bien là... Ça vous explose en bouche... Floral, fruité et poivré jouent ensemble... Un joli mélange... Ah la Barbade jamais déçu. La fin moyenne longue parfait la sensation en bouche. Que dire de plus...
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 lukasdrinkinghabits
Eine typische Barbados-Nase mit überwiegend getrockneten Früchten. Mich erinnert das an einen weihnachtlich gewürzten und mit Rum-Rosinen gefüllten Bratapfel. Im Mund dominieren die würzigen und bitteren Aromen zusammen mit einer an Whisky erinnernden Getreidenote - der Gesamteindruck bleibt immer harmonisch. Nach der tollen Nase fehlt im Mund etwas die Tiefe. Dieser dünne Eindruck setzt sich im eher kurzen Abgang fort. Ein schöner Alltagsrum zu einem guten PLV. Ein Manko: Leider ist der Alkohol überall eine Spur zu präsent.

Review by HenryL
Trotz der zumindest über 50% Alkohol recht zurückhaltend in der Nase, allerdings unverkennbar Barbados. Dazu kommt etwas Bratapfel gefüllt mit einem Dominostein und ein paar Mandelsplittern. Im Mund überraschend bitter, sonst kommen zum Barbados Grundton noch leicht säuerliche Ananas oder Grapefruit und eine leicht schokoladige Note durch. Insgesamt wie die meisten der OTLs ein gutes Upgrade von den Standardabfüllungen zu einem angemessenen Preis.
Review by ElReyTristan
On sent les épices d’un tajine parfumé aux saveurs sucrés…En bouche ça attaque sévère c’est très très épicé et piquant. Ça manque un peu de rondeur. C’est pourtant assez gourmand et on retrouve les saveurs du premier nez. Belle longueur en fin de bouche.
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 crazyforgoodbooze
überraschenderweise sehr trockener und röstig bitter fruchtiger Barbados Rum, die grapefruit und Muskat Note sind ausschlaggebend und sehr interessant. alles in allem ist er mir persönlich aber nicht rund genug und etwas zu adstringierend...
Review by Andreas Egge
Schöner typischer Barbados Rum. Würzig, Rosine, Fass und noch ein bisschen Nuss. Der Geschmack kann nicht ganz mit der sehr schönen Nase mithalten. Abgang auch nur Mittelgang und dann am Ende leicht bitter. Alkoholeinbindung ist nicht so gut. Aber gefällt mir trotzdem.
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Nase: Würzig, Vanille, Alkohol, dann irgendwie sauer, wie Essig. Gaumen: erst süß, Karamell, würzig, holzig, pfefferig, im Abgang bitter und dünn, trotzdem im Alkohol stechend. Insgesamt ok, aber mehr leider nicht.
Review by Tim
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!
Review by Tom Buteneers
Barbados profiel duidelijk aanwezig, zoetig met kruiden en beetje chocolade. Peperig over de ganse lijn, maar toch goed gebalanceerd. Een lekkere rum om rustig van te genieten.
Review by Filip Šikula
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 Leo Krüper
Nice lightweight everyday sipper. Certainly also suitable for beginners. The bottle is beautifully presented and the price is very fair.
Review by Han
Ein gefälliger Rum, dennoch mit schöner Komplexität und einem Hauch Funkyness. Sehr interessant sind Geruch und Geschmack nach Holzleim im positiven Sinne.
Review by Hans
Lecker, leichter Anklang an Plantation XO. Rund, nur leicht süß, schöner Nachgeschmackt mit ein wenig Holz. Kaufen!
Review by Johannes
A fairly standard Barbados, where you can clearly taste the column style again.

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.
