Kaniche XO rum is produced in Barbados where it is first aged in bourbon casks. It is one of the few rums that is then double aged for a more mellow finished in Pierre Ferrand ex cognac casks at their location in France.

Gave this a shot based on some favorable reviews here. Nice presentation. First whiff some coconut , banana with a hint of orange. Taste: Sugarcane, vanilla, and a hint of coconut, a touch of oak and cognac -an excellent rum.
Highly recommend

Awesome rum! Very nice flavor from Barbados! One of the best rums I have ever tasted.
Very smooth rum with a light amber appearance. Can taste the oak barrels which is a nice hint. It pairs excellent with a splash of coke and lime or just by itself on the rocks. I didn't try it in any other drinks but I feel that it would go well with your rum runners and such but I think the flavor by itself is good enough
Love rum and tonic. Kaniche is great for this. Brugal Anejo is a ditsnt second.

Less syrupy sweet than I expected from some reviews here. Has a fruity and vanilla taste to it. Almost juicy flavor when u sip it just right. I wouldn't describe it as super oaky being that it says "double oaked". Good on the rocks for now. For me most of the flavor comes from the added sugar and it doesn't seem very aged. It does remind me of Plantation XO so if you like that then buy this too.

Pro pamětníky: pamatujete ještě na OPRAVDOVÉ Eskymo za padesátník - to malé, dobroučké, bez špejle - z šedesátek a sedmdesátek? Ne ty hnusy, co se dělají pod stejným názvem už čtyřicet let a jsou pořád jen odpornější a odpornější?
Třeba to na tehdy bolševik vozil materiál z Barbadosu...
Kaniché XO (opravdu je to na etiketě s dlouhým É, zatímco na obyčejné Reserve s krátkým) vám tu chuť i vůni připomene. Je lépe nechat ho trochu vydýchat, čímž se rozvoní; v chuti kokos dominuje vždycky. Nesmíte si ovšem představovat nějaký prvoplánovitě ochucený sajrajt typu Malibu - tohle není žádný likérek pro báby, ale poctivá kořalka.
Znáte-li Plantation XO, tak to, co je v něm stran kokosu decentně naznačeno, je zde rozvinuto do astrálních výšin. Bohužel ovšem trochu chybí ta mnohodimensioniální koňakovitost.
Pokud bychom hodnotili rozdíl mezi Plantation Grande Reserve a Plantation XO vs Kaniche Reserve a Kaniche XO, tak je sice velmi podobného charakteru, ale přece jen vyznívá jednoznačně ve prospěch Plantation XO. Nejen pokud jde o daleko důstojnější adjustáž, ale hlavně o poněkud důstojnější obsah.
Přesto si Kaniché XO i za ty peníze určitě ještě někdy zopáknu (protože jsem měl rád to staré Eskymo), navzdory špatně vyrobené a natřené překližkové krabičce, která je jedinou přidanou hodnotou k jinak naprosto stejné láhvi i uzávěru; druh "luxusu", který by si našinec věru s potěšením odpustil. Ovšem Kaniche Reserve nejspíš současně objednám celý karton.

A very complex tasting rum, yet very smooth. I highly recommend having a bottle around for a cold winter night in front of the fire place.

Rum with cream cake flavour
6
/10
out of 10
This rum is a little bit strange, it's like a cream cake. It has a lot of coconut flavour, like Plantation XO.
So far I only knew the marshmallow smell (coconut with suggar) from the Dictador XO insolent.
I wonder where these flavours come from.
It's not very complex and not very old in my opinion. It's sweetened, that's why it's very mild and mellow.
I would gues 8 to 10 years. The taste is sweet and the flavors are bright. For natural rum lovers it tastes a little bit too artificial. But it's still tasty overall, I like this creamy taste of cream cake and berries.
I think a good price would be around 40€, that's why it's a little bit too expensive for me. I would prefer Plantation XO.
If you like Origines 8 Don Pancho, I would recommend this one. I would rate it with 70 points, because there is not enough complexity and a little bit too much sweetness.
Smell: vanilla, cream (marshmallow or coconut with sugar syrup), berries. Like a cake with cream and berries on top.
Taste: cream cake, very creamy in the mouth (sugar syrup), vanilla, some spice, candy (berries), spices, coconut.
