Plantation O.F.T.D (Old Fashioned Traditional Dark) or (Oh Fuck That’s Delicious) is a blend of rums from Barbados, Guyana, and Jamaica. The high proof of this suggests a use in Tiki recipes and other cocktails, but let’s see how it holds up on it’s own. This rum has no dosing added to it.
ABV: 69%
Nose: Citrus, Mangoes, Molasses, slight funk. Pretty tame nose
Palate: Thick, Oily, Warm, Not as much heat as you’d expect for almost 70%, Caramel, Fruity Citrus, Mango, Very tiny funk, bark. Warm Baking Spice
Finish: Long, Warm, Citrus, Mangoes, Caramel, Baking Spices, funk.
Rating: 7/10
This is a really tasty, really strong offering that packs a punch at it’s proof, is very affordable in my area, and goes great in cocktails and is quite delicious neat. There are probably more interesting rums out there but this stuff can’t really be beat at the price point and it’s delicious as hell. Easily a bottle that will always be in rotation on my shelf.
I know Plantation gets a ton of crap, but this is easily their best product (to me).
