Plantation Extrême No. 4 2007
Sipped neat with plenty of air, this column-still Saint Lucia leans into burnt sugar, caramel and roasted coffee, with clove and pepper spice and a touch of glue. Several tasters find it atypical for the island — closer to a heavy Spanish-style rum than the pot-still St. Lucias they know. Give it fifteen minutes to open and the ripe peach and cherry come forward.
The community says- Burnt sugar depth
- Well-integrated spice
- Needs long airing

The look inside the bottle
How does Plantation Extrême No. 4 2007 taste?
Aggregated from 44 community reviews.
Spicy, caramel-heavy column St. Lucia Well-liked but rarely loved. Most call it tasty and spicy with concentrated caramel, though many feel it lacks the concentration and dirty depth of St. Lucia's pot-still bottlings, and the finish rides on alcohol.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I just returned from a luxury tasting I was invited to and I'm actually a bit tipsy this time because all the rums had a high proof. This tasting was Plantation extreme only and this is the third one of the six. This one was far better than the previous one. It may be an atypical Saint Lucia rum, but it balances pretty well. Leave in the glass for a while to get all the flawours. Price to quality is OK.
Review by Maxence
Very surprising St. Lucia with similarities to Caroni profiles. A good and underrated rum in my opinion.
Review by DomM
Top notch / interesting column rum. While I do prefer St Lucia‘s Pot Still rums, I‘m surprised how much I enjoy this one.
Review by Mirco
Beautiful Lucia, but it still can't outdo other Masters Selection etc.. I miss the heavy, dirty notes and some power
Review by Rodolphe
A ste Lucie dominated by the woody profile of a Bourbon cask. It reminds me of the 2005, only more powerful. The nose is dominated by roasted nuts, tobacco, a veil of solvent, almond and a little milk chocolate. On the palate, it's a little livelier, with some fruit not far behind but struggling to make itself heard... It's still a very good gourmet rum, but for the same price it's not what I'd buy on Ste Lucie.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Spannender st Lucia und echt süffig! Wenig Rauch, dafür viel Frucht und Würze und Akazienhonig.
Review by Christopher Morrison
Surprenant, très porté sur les épices, canelle, bonbon acidulé, bubble gum
Review by Leo Tomczak
Very pleasing and pleasant. But thereby also almost boring and consistent. The price is in no way justified for me.
Review by Frank
2. Vorbereitung auf’s 10. GRF in Berlin Nase: lecker, würzig, dunkel-fruchtig, Kirsche mit Pflaume und etwas Traube. Eine schwere alkoholische Süße von Port und Bourbon. Dazu Ahornsirup. Feuchter Tabak und leicht ledrig. Duftholz. Gaumen: voll und schwer, mit einer holzigen Süße. Fruchtig-würzig mit Nelke und tropischen Früchten. Karamell und auch wieder etwas Tabak. Brombeere und Cassis hinten. Insgesamt ist er mir zu süß, aber hat eine interessante Schwere und Aromendichte.
Review by Alexander Rasch
Very exciting. Differs from other bottlings from Saint Lucia. In the finish really nice dry and astringent. Otherwise, I somehow missing something that highlights the rum for the price.
Review by MarcT
Good, but not perfect. It's like a very intense Spanish style, with lots of wood ibfluence and Spices. You have to let this breathe a while, to be able getting the fruitier components behind the alcoholic burn. Also, this takes well to some additional water.
Review by Johannes
What a difference from other good rums from Lucia! This tastes more like a mediocre Spanish. Probably it is continental matured?!
