How does this rum taste?
Most like its smooth, honeyed vanilla, coconut and wood. Critics find it a bit tame and short, with possible extra sweetness. Overall seen as a reliable, well-priced Barbados crowd-pleaser.
If you like standard Barbados or Foursquare-style rums and want a slightly punchier but still easygoing bottle, this gives you that warm vanilla-honey profile without getting challenging.
Drinkers chasing high complexity, long finishes, or very dry, unsweetened rums; and anyone sensitive to a bit of heat around 50% ABV.

Aromas of caramel, orange, spice maybe cinnamon and hints of barrel. Flavors of dried fruit, honey, caramel and a woody hint. This is complex and has a lot going on. It is a great sipper and too good to use as a mixer I think.
The nose is quite dry. Subtle coconut and woody nutmeg notes. Some generic mixed dried fruit. Hint of raspberry. The palate is coconut and oak forward. Sweet honey and a touch of tobacco. Peaches joining in after a moment. I found the finish to be middle of the road in length. Notes of mocha and oak with a touch of raisin. Overall it's another great rum from Plantation. Better than the standard Barabados release, if not by too much.
Not a very complex flavour profile but tasty. Easy sipping whilst still punchy. Well priced
A classic Barbados rum with its notes of coconut and caramel, sweet spices, chocolate and dried fruits. The attack in the mouth is very smooth for the 50 proof, with a hint of coffee and nuts. The finish is of medium length, warm and spicy, woody, vanilla and chocolate with a hint of fruit. A rum without extravagance, simple, greedy and effective.
