„This is a very delicious, round, harmonious Clarendon. Perfect as a daily sipper. The alcohol is integrated very well. Unfortunately it‘s diluted, otherwise this one could reach a high 80-90 valutation.“

„Un nez fluctuant et pas très équilibré avec du solvant et de l’orange amère. Une bouche vive avec de la goyave trop mûre, de l’ananas. Une longueur magnifique dans les fruits tropicaux. On en redemande, un rhum intéressant et agréable. Regouté et toujours bon et agréable.“

„A first Jamaican in my meager (recent) experience of old rums lover. And it is simply one of my first real crushes for this Plantation Jamaica 2003 that I took a long time to find one year after its release. A lot of exotic fruits and solvents in the nose, in the mouth it's an explosion of fruit and leather flavors with a rather long finish. Very well balanced, a real discovery, can't wait to taste it when it will be more airy... It won't last long! It is no less good :)“

„Nach 2 Jahren mal wieder im Glas gehabt. Immernoch ein sehr solider Einsteiger in Jamaica Rum mit unfassbarem PLV. 70€ für 16 Jahre tropical ist heutztage unvorstellbar.“

„A very nice 17 year old sipper from Jamaica. It has the Jamaican funk but is also very fruity and well balanced. The fruitiness starts at the nose all the way through to the long finish. Finish has a bit of peppery to it and I like this one a lot. Price to quality is good.“

„For me, one of the Jamaicans with the best PLV. Fruity, dry, present esters, plus light spice, bitterness and slight acidity. Despite the long tropical maturation, the wood remains in the background, but gives a very balanced rum.Especially on the exhale shows a fruitiness of passion fruit and mango reminiscent of an IPA mixed with a tart bitterness - whose herbal facet is actually reminiscent of hops. Remains present in the finish for quite a long time. When Plantation delivers like this, there's no reason to criticize.“

„Very fruity profile as expected from a Clarendon rum. It is funky and round but the final could have been longer. Maybe because of its 49.5° ...“

„Each time I open the bottle and re-taste the goodness, it gets better.... In the meantime, I have to adjust my initial opinion as I can now appreciate it much more. For me, one of the proofs that my pallet is gradually evolving.“

„Nice blend of fruity, spicy and woody. In the finish light tobacco. Perhaps a few percent more would have brought even more flavor.“
