    "Unspectacular, but drinkable. Has a gin-like quality. Sugared? However, a perfect starter for beginners or a longer tasting."

    "Masterclass with Alexandre Gabriel on 04.04.2024. Plantation becomes Planteray. It's definitely too sweet for me. But for the price that is being asked, I think it's a fair sweet entry-level rum. Definitely suitable for baking."

    "A relaxed and quite complex rum blend with exciting aromas that are rarely found in this form and clearly reminds me of the cachacas from the Umburana cask. In my opinion, however, the rum would have benefited from a few percent more and a little less sugar. But that's probably the view of a rum nerd who loves tasting distillates at cask strength. For the occasional connoisseur who would like to try a few new rums, the Plantation Sealander could be an exciting experience due to its dominant tonka bean flavor."

    "This relatively new "navy-style" blend brings together three regions. Barbados (FWI), Mauritius (Saint Aubin) and Fiji (south pacific) are represented. The blend contains rum made from both molasses and sugar cane juice. At the beginning, there is a lot of cinnamon on the nose, sweetness as well as some fruit and spice. This taste, which is reminiscent of amburana wood, is also clear on the palate, which I find to be over the top in combination with a little too much sweetness. Nevertheless, a decent blend for beginners."
