Plantation Rum’s Tasting Notes

Plantation OFTD (Old Fashioned Traditional Rum) Overproof 69%

A blend of Guyana, Jamaica and Barbados rums

Tasted: Mar 2018

Pungent aromas of dark dried fruit along with a touch of lighter column still dried fruit. Lightly herbal and treacly with burnt coffee. For a supposed Navy rum, the nose is pretty well balanced.

The palate opens with the herbal treacle, dark raisinated fruit and lighter column still dried fruit. Seriously alcoholic, which masks the middle and finish, but there’s a touch of toffee coated banana and a dark chocolate and bitter spice finish.

With water the nose becomes quite...
