Plantation XO 20th Anniversary

Love the looks of this bottle, it fits nicely in my cabinet.

First a bit of alcohol in the glass, but after a bit it opens and gets a more sweet and smooth scent, could definitely get some vanilla.

Smooth taste, sweet rum, I could sit with this the entire evening.

Il Plantation XO 20th Anniversary è un ottimo rum, dal sapore dolce e raffinato, per questo non dissimile dal Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva. Prodotto dell'affinazione di rum pregiati invecchiati 12 - 20 anni, tutti originari delle Barbados, viene poi lasciato invecchiare ulteriormente per un paio di anni in Francia, in botti che hanno contenuto cognac. Il risultato di tutto questo processo è uno dei rum migliori che si possano reperire nella sua fascia di prezzo, inoltre, il suo essere relativamente poco conosciuto contribuisce ad aumentarne il fascino.

Kdo by čekal rapidní šlehu po napití jak bývá u A.H. Riise, tak ho zklamu. Plantation XO je velmi dobrý rum. Sladké, kokosovo-vanilkové a zase si vzpomenu sladké. Žádný nástřel. Jemný, vyvážený, kokos, vanilka.

Nice all around rum. Sipper, cocktail, or cola. It works in all. Slightly sweet with vanilla and cask notes. Just a hint of afterburn but not enough to worry about.

A single cube of ice and it taste like a cocktail. Smells amazing. Best rum ever.

This was the first bottle i ever bought and the rum that started my interest. From the moment i opened it i loved it! it was a 10/10, the sweetness, vanilla, so smooth..! Now when I've tried a lot more different rums i still think its a fantastic one, but its not a 10/10 anymore. the thing that is still a 10 is the bottle, the most beautiful bottle there is!

Rhum très sucré, trop cher et peu représentatif des rhums de la Barbade.

I guess there are better ones out there - hence the 9. But I really like this one. In terms of quality vs price ratio, it's very good. Highly recommended.

Complex with many tropical flavours slight sweetness is overtaken by harsh finish.
Disappointed after reading previous reviews as although this is an exceptional rum it is, in my opinion, let down by the cognac finish.
Much better rum available at lower price point.

I think it is quite good to drink. Not to complex but with very good flavors to it.
