Multiple | Aged | 40% ABV | Pot and Column Still Distilled
Plantation XO 20th Anniversary rum is a combination of pot-stilled and column-stilled Barbadian rums that are initially aged in the Caribbean in ex-bourbon casks for 12-20 years. They are then transported to France for a second 12-18 months aging in small French oak casks.
The first bottle of Plantation XO 20th Anniversary was created for the head of Cognac Ferrand Estate Alexandre Gabriel to honor his 20th year running the company. This special gift has resulted in the bottling we see today.

This rum is amazing! It's silky smooth, properly sweet, and absolutely delicious! Plantation products have always been good, but this is the best one I've ever had. It's only rivals are the very sherried Diplomatico Ambassador, Appleton's 20+ year products and the extremely exclusive Ron Del Barrilito Four and Five Star, at least, that I've tried. It's got caramel, cinnamon and light vanilla for days and it is dangerous!
It just became available in my neck of the woods and I am DEFINITELY buying a couple more as soon as possible. It, unlike the other aforementioned products is EXTREMELY affordable! While Appleton's old aged rums reach the $100-200+ mark, Diplomatico's Ambassador is typically around $300 and for the "Top" Ron Del Barrilito experience, you're looking at close to a grand. This Plantation expression is about $50! If you see it, buy it, immediately! You will NOT be sorry!
The only negative that I can pretend to give this product is that the nose (after resting) loses some of its original aroma and the alcohol smell comes through. That's it! As I don't put nearly as much care into the smell as the taste, I give this rum a 9.75/10, which rounds up to a perfect score...AND, IT'S CHEAP!!!

This is by far the best rum I’ve had to date! Sweet (but not overly), smooth with hints of coconut, vanilla, and caramel. Highly recommended!
The best bottle of rum I've had for the price. This is a sweet yet complex rum. Not as sweet as diplomatica exclusiva but extremely smooth and easy to drink. hints of coconut and vanilla are delightful and make this rum one, if not the best sipping rums in my cabinet.
old fashioned with tiki bitters. Very, very smooth

Bought this to share with a good friend. Smooth as silk in the mouth and during the swallow. No strong flovours or spice overtones. Smells and tastes like pure rum. Loved it and needless to say we finished the bottle.

Sooo good. One of my top 3. So easy to drink. Vanilla, cinnamon. A bit sweet. Soooooft. Smooth. Delicate. So drinkable.
It tastes pretty much like a coconut liqueur.
"An overly sweet saccharin note which make the rum taste artificial. ."

The one rhum to rule them all. Well balanced, sweet, fruity makes you feel like you are at a palm beach in the tropics. A bit smokey feel, a stinging sensation that doesnt overdo it, but leaves you longing for the next sip.
