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.

En ny favorit från plantation. Len i doften där man avskilja vanilj.

Denne rom var den første jeg fik af mine forældre efter jeg gik i gang med at "samle".
Normalt er jeg mest til de sødere rom som er mere runde i smagen, denne er dog et rigtigt godt bud på en rom der er en anelse mere "sprittet", men ikke på en dårlig måde.
Anderledes end hvad jeg er vant til men dejlig rom.

Very soft rum, easy to drink, no hard aftertaste. Perfect rum for that price.

Perfekt in allen Bereichen, leicht zu trinken und trotzdem sehr eigener Geschmack. Sehr gute Wahl, obwohl etwas teurer

This rum is little bit overpriced here in Czech Republic. It is very good yet quite sharp for a 20-year (of course a bled with younger rums) old drink. It's totally worth trying as it's taste is interesting, full-bodied and great for those who don't expect really sweet taste, but I would expect more rounded body from such an old guy.

Fantastic choice!!! Me gustó bastante el sabor... para ser anglosajón que no son de mis favoritos.

I love this rum, it's buttery, rich, soft and delicious. I do know they add sugar before they bottle to soften it up but done very well and hard to keep it in the house.

I received this bottle as a gift and I was sad when it was gone so fast. I enjoyed the wonderful aroma and long smooth finish this rum offers.
Buy a bottle if you get a chance.
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 really wanted to like this. I’ve never paid so much for a bottle of rum and it pains me that this was such a let down. This basically tastes like a bottle of whiskey with notes of brandy and a little bit of rum. Now I know that this was aged with both used whiskey and cognac barrels but to the extent of the taste of whiskey that this tastes is too much. It really makes me wonder why this rum gets such praise. I bought so I could taste rum with notes of whiskey and cognac not the other way around. It seems that in order for a rum to be “good” it has to taste like whiskey which is counterintuitive to me since it is after all rum. Don’t get me wrong I like whiskey but if I had a choice between a lower priced whiskey and this I’d go with the whiskey every time, simply because it would taste better. Overall if you want a complex whiskey tasting rum with hints of cognac and have money to burn then sure waste it on this, however if you’d like a rum that tastes like rum I’d look elsewhere.
