A mild, sweet rum that splits opinions—some find the wine cask is subtle, others get quirky savoury notes like Pad Thai. One to try if you enjoy unusual twists on vanilla and red fruit spirits.

    How does this rum taste?

    Plantation Panama 2012 Pauillac Wine Cask Finish leans into soft vanilla, mellow red fruits, and a touch of wood, with many RumX users calling out its sweetness and subtle wine influence. Timo Groeger notes, “etwas zu süss...Vanille und aber auch Holz”, while Johannes describes a rum where “das Weinfinish erhält...schöne Komplexität.” There’s some unique debate—Filip Šikula detects a “činská omáčka” (Chinese sauce) vibe in both aroma and taste, likely echoing those intriguing, savoury undercurrents reported alongside the expected fruity notes.

    Für meinen Geschmack auch wieder etwas zu süss. Also das Wine Cask Finish kann ich irgendwie so gar nicht erkennen, stattdessen wieder eine leichte Süße, Karamell, Schokolade, Vanille und aber auch Holz sind erkennbar.

    Alkohol nicht perfekt eingebunden, aber durch das Weinfinish erhält der Rum eine schöne Komplexität.

    Přijemná milá, do rumu vypálená činská omáčka. :-) ve vůni drěvo, sušené ovoce a karamel. V chuti jsem si nejdřív přečetl Pavlův padthai a tězko se ho zbavuju. Asi tam je k trocha dřeva a pak zas ta sójovka.

    For first taste and in first two seconds this taste like standard rum...but suddenly - OMG - what do I taste in there?!? It taste like food food from chinese fast food. Chinese noodles, really!!! Not nice for rum but realy unique, amazing! EDIT- not noodles, Padthai is it!.
