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.

Vůně medu, trochu ovoce, možná náznak kůže. Chuť je příjemně sladká, trochu dřeva, trochu citrusů. Dozvuk není ostrý. Příjemně se pije. Jeden z nejlepších jaké jsem ochutnal.

Otroligt mjuk och rund smak å goda aromer som fyller gommen, utan tvekan en favorit bland de olika Rom jag smakat. Man ska dock veta att jag uppskattar när rom är lite åt det söta hållet och det är defensivt Plantation XO 20th Anniversery.

C'est un bon rhum agréable à boire mais dans lequel il est dur de trouver autre chose que de la vanille et du caramel. Passez votre chemin si vous aimez la complexité.

The big issue with this rum is it's supposed to be a combination of Barbadian rums but it tastes nothing like any other barbadian rums. Supposedly aged between 12 and 20 years, it tastes like it's been aged 3-5, the fact that there's no real age statement on the bottle but a bright gold 20! and a tiny "th" just screams trickery. It's not even that different to Plantation's 5 year Barbados offering and definitely not worth the price difference. The best thing it has going for it is the beautiful bottle. I know that Plantation's schtick is all about elevage and getting it to France and aging it there but I almost wish they had have kept it in barbados and bottled it there, particularly so they couldn't have added sugar (against the law there). For some reason it seems really watery especially considering how old it's supposed to be. It's nice and if you have friends who don't like rum they'll love this but I wouldn't buy a bottle again.

Rigtig god Rom, kunne godt bruge lidt mere kant = lidt mere alkohol
Smooth but still wire an edge. Absolutely worth drinking

Can enjoy this anytime. Smooth, dark, hints of chocolate and no Afters.
I currently have 2 bottles, the first time i tried it was a gift from my girlfriend ..., and it was an excellent gift i must say. I did not expect such good rum; it's very balanced with sweet, woody and vanilla notes. In addition he presents a dark amber color that makes it very striking, finally the presentation of the bottle is very original.
Tremendous Ron !!!
Actualmente tengo 2 botellas, la primera vez que lo probé fue un regalo de mi novia..., y fue un excelente regalo debo decir. No me esperaba un ron tan bueno; es muy equilibrado teniendo notas dulces, amaderadas y de vainilla. Ademas el presenta un color ámbar oscuro que lo hace muy llamativo, por último la presentación de la botella es muy original.

I can't believe I'm seeing 7's for this rum. I think its a solid 9. It's a high priced rum that delivers as sipper.
It tastes pretty much like a coconut liqueur.
"An overly sweet saccharin note which make the rum taste artificial. ."

Damn near perfect. One of the finest rums I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying, fantastic sipper. A wonderfully balanced rum with just the right amount of sweetness and thick caramel finish.
