“A sweetened blend with a round appearance, definitely with Jamaica content. Lots of fruit with honey and some smoky wood. In the mouth dominantly sweet and round, at the same time woody spicy with spicy tobacco. Almost complex! Well, but the finish is the weakest, as it somehow tastes artificially like caramelized strawberry or banana. Nevertheless, for the price actually quite a good entry-level rum.”

“Smell 7/10 Taste 7/10 Aftertaste 7,5/10 Image 7,5/10 (info about rum, bottle, carton-box, sugar free, marketing....) Total impression 7/10 ------------------ BTL Added sugar (estimated 18-20 g/l) 👎👎 BTL II Price 👍👍 BTL III Biggest surprise among the cheap sweetened rums 👍”

“Overall an OK rum that probably serves well in drinks like Dark’N’Stormy. Had a glass of this rum after a better dinner at Såstaholms Castle. There’s several different Plantation Original Dark with different origins. I’ve seen at least 3, Trinidad, Trinidad & Jamaica and Barbados & Jamaica. This one, Barbados & Jamaica, contains 1-3 year old Barbados rum and 10-15 year old Jamaica rum. The distillate is aged in charred American oak barrels before transported to France for some more aging, this time in former Cognac oak barrels.”
