Planteray Cut and Dry Coconut Rum

"As soon as the rum is in the glass I think I have a plate full of fresh coconut macaroons in front of me, coconut ^3! On the palate there is a slightly grassy note but the coconut flavors continue to give full steam! The finish is surprisingly long and - surprise! - is dominated by coconut! For what it is, it's excellent and a great addition to pina coladas and other exotic cocktails!"

"Oh, I just love coconut! And here the nose is so seductively liqueur-like, mhhhh. But on the palate it's unfortunately a little more sober and relatively thin. But not as sweet. All right. Still, not bad if you want to be undemanding."

"Masterclass with Alexandre Gabriel on 04.04.2024. Plantation becomes Planteray. For me, this was one of the positive surprises of the tasting. The story behind it is very interesting. Sure, it will never be one of my favorites, but I think you could mix good cocktails with it."

"Wow, this is honestly pure coconut on the nose, instantly filling the whole room. Some wood, vanilla, chocolate and lots of coconuts. But this is real coconut flavor in contrast to many artificial tasting products. Same on the palate with emphasis on coconut flesh. Reasonably sweet to me. Thanks to Alexandre and the RumX Team for the masterclass!"

"Smells and tastes like a liquid Bounty chocolate bar. Nice, natural coconut note. Fun to drink!"

"#4687 04.04.2024 Online tasting wit RumX and Plantaray. Nose Light wood, coconut, raisin, light chocolate. Palate Coconut, sweet, light wood, medium dry, light chocolate. Finish Short, coconut, faint wood. This rum is all about coconut and there is a lot of it. We all agreed that this was liquid Bounty."

"Bounty in liquid form is actually very good here. Although I don't like Bounty because there's always a strange taste that spoils my appetite when I bite into it. There's no need to bite into it here, so you can just enjoy it. It's clearly too sweet for me to drink straight, but it should find a nice place in a Pina Colada. The coconut flavors here are fun."

"It is of course difficult to evaluate this rum apart from honest quality rum. But if you dare, I have to admit that among the many coconut rums available, this one stands out with its bombastic nose. Very nutty and lots of cocoa! You can buy it as a liqueur rum, which I have since done. However, it seems that the rum changes quickly (negatively) in the bottle, so it's better to drink it quickly."

"Super round and delicious coconut rum from Barbados and not too sweet! It's great in drinks and tastes very authentic and intense with roasted coconut chips and a little dark chocolate. Pleasantly "dry" and strong, if you can call it that. PLV could be 5-10€ cheaper in my opinion, but it's only coconuts from Barbados and therefore a really "sustainable" coconut rum."

"full load of Bounty :-))"

"Great mixer ... Perfect for Pina Colada. Tastes very strongly of coconut and a little wood, relatively little fruit but some spice is present. Pure, however, I find it much too sweet for me anyway ..."

"Not a classic rum in the archetypal sense, of course, but the coconut aroma is so impressive - you can't get much closer to coconut macaroons in terms of taste - that I have to give this release its rightful place. A liquid dessert of the better kind, if you want to fall back on a generous portion of sweetness."

"Malibu time! :)"

"Masterclass with Alexandre Gabriel from Plantation Rum. This is Bounty. On the nose and on the palate. Dark chocolate in the main supporting role of coconut on the nose and palate. A really intense coconut note. But apart from the chocolate, there is also very little (or no) rum. Bounty is more practical. And unfortunately also much too sweet. But for sweet rum and Komos lovers, it's certainly a thing. But the name Dry is a bit confusing. Great taste, I really like it. But as a drink for me - as a sugar mimosa - unfortunately too sweet"

"The coconut flavor harmonizes wonderfully with Barbados rum. A little too sweet perhaps, but that does not make it worse as a mixed spirit because of that."
