“I just returned from a luxury tasting I was invited to and I'm actually a bit tipsy this time because all the rums had a high proof. This tasting was Plantation extreme only and this is the fourth one of the six. This is a very nice estery Jamaican rum where the finish lasts for a very, very long time. Very well balanced between proof, spice and tropical fruits. The price is a bit high but still OK I think.”
