    How does this rum taste?

    • Red wine and Marsala influence
    • Smooth and easy sipper
    • Notably spicy and sweet

    Red wine and spice take center stage in this Fiji Islands single cask, with notes of sweet Marsala, dried fruit, and a gentle undercurrent of dark chocolate. RumX tasters frequently mention the smooth, approachable palate, though it leans more towards wine and wood than classic Fiji boldness. Worth exploring for fans of dessert-style, wine-cask-matured rums.

    "This is the post-tasting of the Plantation Masterclass I missed. This is now the 7th rum from it and I've reached the point where I can hardly detect any differences between the Spanish-style rums I've tasted. Again, I can taste coconut and detect only moderately well-integrated alcohol."

    "Masterclass with Alexandre Gabriel on 04.04.2024. Plantation becomes Planteray. A positive surprise for me at this tasting. Not 100% what I imagine a typical Fiji to be, but still a success."

    "Nice and fruity on the nose but also alcoholic. Also slightly alcoholic on the palate and reminds me of Central American-style rums. The finish is quite short and is also more in the Zacapa style. Average rum and not necessarily recognizable as Fiji."

    "Very tart, a lot of barrel. But an interesting rum. There's not much left of the Fiji profile due to the finish. Would have blindly guessed a Panama from Ron del Artesano, they also like to have such a barrel influence."
