Planteray Black Cask (Barbados & Paraguay) 2024
People who like their rum sweet, fruity and easy will get on well here. It's a Barbados-Paraguay blend from Maison Ferrand, heavy on caramelized pineapple, passion fruit and baking spice, with vanilla and a little wood underneath. Several tasters call it "very (too) sweet" but tasty, and a great everyday pour. Fans of drier, bolder rum will find it thin and over-dosed.
The community says- Tropical fruit notes
- Warm baking spice
- Contains added sugar

Better than its predecessors and somewhat stronger in appearance A solid entry-level rum with good mixing ability. But unfortunately it doesn't come close to the very first 2 black casks. In my opinion, you could do without the dosage here too.
Review by Master P
Eine köstliche Nase mit gut karamellisierten tropischen Früchten, die sich mit süßen Gewürzen vermischen. Im Mund sind die tropischen Früchte immer noch präsent. Er ist sehr (zu) süß, aber lecker. Das mittlere Flair ist angenehm mit der Säure der Passionsfrucht in Verbindung mit den Gewürzen. Ein sehr angenehmer Rum für einen Cuba Libre****
Review by Gregor
Wow. Was ein tolles Preis Leistungsverhältnis. Wirklich wahnsinnig. Tolle Aromen von Ananas und anderen tropische Früchten,starke würze. Sehr spannend und komplex.l und das für den Preis. Für mich könnte er ein paar Prozente mehr haben.

Notes from Whisky Live Paris 2024 - to be reviewed and expanded. For the moment, it's a cold shower: a beautiful bottle, but a juice that seems over-dosed, lacking length, pep, and even less complexity...
Review by Johannes
Ganz schön süß, trotzdem auch Bitternoten, Orange, Zimt.
Review by Morgan Garet
An indulgent nose of caramelized tropical fruit mixed with sweet spices. On the palate, the tropical fruits are still present, accompanied by cinnamon-type spices. It's very (too) sweet but delicious. The medium-bodied fi ale is pleasant, with the acidity of passion fruit combined with spices. A very pleasant aperitif rum offering excellent value for money.

Bought for me dad and we tasted together. I like this more Than last year's expressions. Has more sweetness but also more roasted notes. Some spicyness can also be found so at the end it comes off very balanced and tasty.

Review by R Wehner
Nase schöne Würze, vielversprechend; Zunge ähnlich, ganz leichte Schärfe, nicht schlimm, dann aber deutliche Süße, passt gut zusammen, aber vermutlich eher was für Einsteiger, PLV geht völlig in Ordnung dafür
Review by Andzin
A bit suprise with low score. For me winner of Black cask releases from Plantation/Plantaray. Despite low abv nice complexity and this I see as great example of super rum for beginner or parties.
Review by hubo
Sehr angenehm und gefällig, bei exzellentem Preis/Genuss-Verhältnis. Im Geruch Vanille, Karamell und etwas Holz, im Geschmack kommen Fruchtnoten dazu. Schön anhaltender Abgang.

Very fruity blend of Barbados & Paraguay where Paraguay is more prominent. On the nose it is very interesting full of fruity aromas and spices. On the palate it's all about tropical fruits. Coconut, pineapple, banana with dose of baking spices such as vanila or cinnamon. I am very pleased with this fresh take on blending. Very reminiscent of Duppy Share Spices.
