    How does this rum taste?

    • Belize-Profil bleibt gut erkennbar
    • schöner Rum für Einsteiger
    • Kirschnoten sind sehr interessant

    Plantation Belize 2015 Cherry Liqueur Cask leans heavy on pronounced cherry, caramel, and chocolate notes, with coconut and a lingering sweetness often mentioned. Many pick up the signature cherry-kissed character—'mon Cheri an der Nase' (crazyforgoodbooze)—which threads through both aroma and palate but without overpowering. While several found the profile 'zu süß' or verge on 'sirupartig', others—like Johannes—appreciate the 'spannendes Finish' and how the cherry is 'eine nette Ergänzung' to the Belize rum base (Jakob). This bottling feels approachable and dessert-like, with the wood and coffee nuances adding a touch of bitterness to balance that sweetness.

    "Unfortunately just ... ordinary. And too thin! I found the finish unconvincing. But perhaps also an unfair assessment because it was tasted against an outstanding Belize 2006. So it will be back in the glass. Update 2024-04-26: Rating increased by 3 points from 69 to 72. Today I like the coffee-coconut note quite well. Nevertheless, the rum remains thin for me."

    "Masterclass with Alexandre Gabriel on 04.04.2024. Plantation becomes Planteray. Since Belize is now partly a red rag for me, as I personally can't do anything with most bottlings, I was pleasantly surprised by this one. Not an absolute enlightenment, but definitely drinkable."

    "Tried this one at the guys from Romdeluxe, as it was recommended from one of them. The nose has a sweetness with cherry and vanilla to it, and in the notes I found red fruits, chocolate and a sweetness. Edit: re-tasted and added picture"

    "More spice and barrel than fruit on the nose. Lots of sweetness and characteristics of the Spanish style. Very similar and liqueur-like on the palate. I think it also has a "dosage" (as the addition of sugar is euphemistically called at Plantation, among others). The finish is of medium length and again strongly reminiscent of simple Spanish-style rums. It's a shame, the raw material doesn't seem to be bad but I don't like this "processing" so much, but it's certainly suitable as an introduction to Belize and not unpleasant."
