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.

Na tenhle rum jsem se hodně těšil a nezklamal. Každopádně ten kokosovo-vanilkový nádech, který vzniká nejspíš zráním v dubových sudech po koňaku, je hodně intenzivní. Ve vůni jsou dobře rozpoznatelné ještě tóny banánů. Myslím, že každého (včetně mě) dostalo právě to, že cítí tyhle dost konkrétní vůně. Chuťově se jedná o výrazný rum s vanilkovo-čokoládovými tóny s příjemným hřejivým meruňkovo-broskvovým zakončením. Ale Presidente Martí 15, jenž jsem chutnal následně, mi přišel přeci jen ještě o chlup lepší. Ale uvidíme při dalších shledání s tímto jinak vybroušeným drahokamem mezi rumy. Je možné že časem půjdu z hodnocením ještě výš, zatím dávám solidních 9.
Someone else said it best - thick and smooth. This rum is magnificent. It has a thick feel, lingering taste, some sweetness, very light burn, leaves you wanting another sip. Light oakiness, great aroma. A must have, not a mixer. Smooth all day.
Enjoy everything this magnificent rum has to offer either neat or on ice.

One of my favourites! You can drink it every day - absolutely perfect taste. Its mild and sweer with a little taste of vanille and coconut - like its on barbados. A must have in your collection

Un assemblage agréable et équilibré. A la fois épicé, boisé et vanillé avec juste ce qu'il faut de puissance et de rondeur. Un petit bémol sur la longueur en bouche que j'aurais appréciée plus nette.

Smooth medium body leaves a little burn feeling in the throats but very good sipping rum
It is not bad rum for sure but It is way too expensive for me. I didn't like the taste of banana at the end. If you want to try soft rum with Caribbean taste, you should try this one.

This was amazing and a knockout of a rum just top drawer ... I started off not liking plantation but o my god this is delicious
It tastes pretty much like a coconut liqueur.
"An overly sweet saccharin note which make the rum taste artificial. ."

Try to get a well lit shot from the front of the rum label

I was sceptical at first...
10

out of 10
...because of the good reviews this rum gets despite it being comparatively low priced.
I thought maybe it's the upmarket design of the bottle which deceives people into thinking this is premium stuff.
Well I was wrong. This is hands down the best value for a spirit of this quality I've come across.
Do yourself a favour and get a bottle.
