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.

Beautiful vanilla tones. Smooth and aged well. Top notch rum for sure.
Pricey but well worth it
Really easy to drink, goes smooth in the throat ! As sweet as a rum should be ! 10/10 would buy again !

A snazzy looking decanter bottle of XO rum from Barbados, aged in bourbon barrels before being shipped to France for a secondary maturation in Cognac Casks.
Nose: Hints of spicy oak on the nose, with guava, some coconut and dried banana. Buttery.
Palate: Spiced, creamy palate entry, with sweet vanilla notes and caramel. Oaky spices.
With a toasted oak caramel finish.
Tasty and good value for the $$
This is the one I reach for when I have company over who have never sipped a rum before. Great nose, just sweet enough, a little burn and great, long finish. Almost too easy to drink, my friends and I love this stuff so much we buy it by the case!

Very good rum, not very sweet in my opinion. It has a wooden bottle top.
This bottle will be one of my favorites.
very good price / performance
You really need this one in your collection
The sugar in it helps smooth it out and there's is a nice sweetness to it but it still tastes relatively young compared to other highly rated sweet rums like Diplomatico R.E. or El Dorado 15 yr. I suppose I expected it to be sweeter in the way of a Demerara rum but with a Bajan flair. Decent rum but not worth the price tag IMHO. Similar taste to Kaniche XO which is made by the same place and significantly cheaper if u can find it. Update: One of the most overrated/overpriced rums there is, itβs ok but definitely not great. Your money is better spent elsewhere.
was a gift from my wife for our anniversary.. enjoyed both over rocks and mixed... will definitely buy again.. was a bit expensive but enjoyed
It tastes pretty much like a coconut liqueur.
"An overly sweet saccharin note which make the rum taste artificial. ."

Taste of smoked pineapple, honey mango, banana, coconut. Brings back memories of the caribbean!
Very impressive looking bottle, yet tastefully designed without spiking the price. I can not think of a better value rum than this one.
