Multiple | Aged | 40% ABV | Pot and Column Still
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.

Très bon rhum. Bon équilibre entre le goût sucré et le côté plus tranchant de l'alcool.

Very balanced taste . Coconut vanilla and honey are dominant taste. Smooth , one of the top in midprice rums category .

Nose: banana, vanilla, sucar cane, caramel and coconut and also chamomile.
Palate: creamy and quite sweet, almost too much for my taste, is almost on the dessert rum category. coconut, caramel, banana, tropical fruit and very distinct quava notes
Finish: sugary smooth with a bit of spice and pleasant amount of oak.
This is a solid aged rum for casual rum byers but it is not an authentic unaltered rum.
It definately has a lot of sugar added but im happy they didn't add any more because this is on the brink of becoming way too sweet.
But it has exciting flavor profile. Not for people who dislike sweetened rums.

Notes of caramel and coconut round off a great aged rum - try it neat.

Absoluter Preisl-Leistungs Sieger.
Geschmack: Vanille, leichte citrus Noten, Karamell, Kokos
Nase: Vanille und Kokos
Weicher und überraschend langanhaltender Geschmack.
Sollte auf jeden Fall nie in einer Rum Sammlung fehlen.

This rum is my absolute favorite so far, after having tried a number of premium rums. It is very smooth drinking, with just the right amount of sweetness.
Deze rum is erg lekker. Smaak is super! Beetje vanille achtig. Drinkt goed weg.

Much flavour of coconut, quite sweet. Flavours of vanilla and caramel are perceptible. It's really smooth after letting it breath for 15 minutes. The aftertaste lasts very long. The bottle looks really nice, especially the thick bottom of the bottle which makes it quite heavy. One of my favorites rums.

Har en lidt skarpere smag end jeg normalt ville vælge.
Ok sødme, vanille duften skinner godt igennem.
Rigtig flot flaske
