Plantation Pineapple Stiggin's Fancy

I really wanted to like this rum but I haven’t yet found a home for it.

It definitely tastes like rum with naturally infused pineapple. I just don’t really like drinking it.

After hunting it down and paying a fairly high Price for it, I am a little disappointed.

Hoping to find a cocktail that makes it sing for me.

Glad others like it.

Amazing pineapple rum without artificiels. Much better than original dark.

Not what i expected. I like sweeter rums and im also big fan of Plantation so i was surprised that this rum has very strong alcohol flavour with very very smooth fruity tones.

Chuť ananasu je tak výrázná, že není poznat, že pijete rum.

I guess it might be good for cocktails. Not for sipping.
Plain taste, too much added sugar, all the spirit is masked by sugar.
No aftertaste detected.

My little journey into spiced\flavored rums is over.

Colour- light
Flavour- pineapple fruitiness
Uses- neat mixer
Its ok but not great straight it is however a very nice mixer makes a great pina colada or hurricane rum punch easy to find in M&S

I finally got my hands on this $30 flavored rum. Don't even think of trying this one neat, since it is rather disgusting. Adding ice does little to improve it. However, it just begs to reinvent the Pina Colada. My first try at this was equal parts Plantation Pineapple, Plantation 3-star (blanco), and Coco Lopez. This made a good Pina Colada over ice, but I went one step further. Try mixing equal parts Plantation Pineapple with chilled Coco Lopez with no ice at all for a 20% ABV Pina Colada. This last combo worked best for me, but I won't be buying this one again.

There are several articles on the back that can be read with a magnifying glass. I really appreciate the research into bringing this very unique rum back for us to try, but I can also see why it fell out of fashion. One of the articles also shows how the Reverend Stiggins who favored this rum was not a really nice guy.

Mostly smoke and alcohol, very slight hint of pineapple. Decent for mixing. Shame, I really wanted to like it.

It's definitely not a sipper.
It really does have pineapple flavor, but the distillate is not pleasant.
A little spicy in aftertaste.

It tastes like pineapple. Like, it's right there on the label and everything. So if you buy it thinking you're going to get a rum that tastes like anything except, well, pineapple, you've only got yourself to blame.

Reading through some of the other ratings here, others seem to feel that the pineapple flavor was subtle and only popped in context with other ingredients; for me, I felt like someone had just lodged a pineapple spear sideways in my nose and then gave me a glass of some decent but totally arbitrary rum to drink as a chaser.

I suppose there must be some context in which this makes sense, but to me this just reminded me of a more grown up version of the wine coolers I used to drink when I was young and foolish. The closest thing I can think of in flavor is a pineapple champagne I tried from a winery on Maui; similar to that, while it was interesting as a novelty experience, I found myself staring at the bottle once I got home from my trip and wondering how I'd ever actually use it.

I guess buy this if you really like pineapple-flavored things. But I'd rather spend my money on their over-the-top amazing Plantation Three Star or their XO 20th Anniversary instead.
