Continuing the tradition of Cognac Ferrand, this is one of the best choices in rum. Very fine and rich taste, long finish and beautiful flavors.
Pour un rapport Qualité prix. Sans aucun doute un plus pour votre dégustation.

This far, this rum is simply the BEST! At it's price point, presentation, color, nose, smoothness... It stands as a legitimate contender as among the best money can buy! This is a pure sipping rum that you should not dare water down. Maybe one ice cube just for temperature sake (I like my spirits on the cooler side). Creamy, vanilla, honey, nuts, fruit, it is all there. And just epic smooth!

The other bottle from the Plantation range for around 20€. Again too sweet, not very complex. I'm not against adding sugar to rum in general. But if the sugar overlays simply everything and the whole product come around like sirup with alcohol, it is wrong.

very long and warm finish, fantastic blend, a hint of cherry, vanilla, and sweet spices, a touch of honey, love this rum. One might get the impression of drinking a blend of rum and cognac, it has the sweetness of rum but flavours more typical of a well aged brandy.

This rum was not expensive at around £35, which I think is pretty good value for money.
The aroma and initial taste is cognac and oak, which makes sense given the way it is made.
It is pretty smooth, with no more alcohol burn than many rums with a larger pricetag.
There are lovely light caramel notes which segue nicely into a very subtle organic, almost earthy finish, but it doesn't last long.
There is sweetness to this rum ... not as much as Diplomatico (is anything? LOL!) but more than an aged Appleton's. For me, the sweetness is perfect for something you can drink a few glasses of.
I think I will be looking to get some more of the Plantaion label.
