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.

Quel beau flacon, en plus ce qu'il contient est un pur bonheur.
Il faut avoir ça dans sa cave.
Quel rhum pour un budget de 50€ environ

Absolutely excellent rum. Works well after skiing. Easy to sip and easy to take another one as well.

Assemblage des plus vieilles réserves de la maison, ce rhum est une pure merveille : vieillis de très longues années dans les Caraïbes, les rhums sélectionnés pour cet assemblage sont ensuite minutieusement assemblés par notre maître de Chai, au Château de Bonbonnet, puis affinés dans de petites barriques de chêne français pendant 12 à 18 mois supplémentaires.
Ce « double ageing » apporte à ce rhum une rondeur en bouche et un velouté incomparable. De couleur vieil acajou, Plantation XO 20th Anniversaire révèle un nez aux notes exotiques de canne à sucre, vanille boisée et noix de coco grillée, complétées par des effluves plus complexes de cacao, d’orange confite et de boite à cigare.

parfait en tous les points... pas trop sucré, pas trop burning, très très plaisant à boire !
en plus pour le prix, je pense qu'il est difficile de trouver meilleur...

Great rum to drink straight up or on the rocks. Very smooth, great taste! I absolutely recommend it!
This was my second purchase of a good quality rum, and what a difference. Very aromatic to the nose and smooth spicy finish in the tongue. I thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend it.

It is a sweeter rum with its own flavor. I can taste some coconut which sets it apart. It is smooth and complex but the suger overwhelms the other flavors.

Fantastic rum. Smooth with coconut taste. Expensive but worth it.

The smell is very appealing, a good strong warm rum, not to warm, a very good rum.

One of my friend told me it was the best rum he ever tasted !!! I was not disappointed!! I would tend to say that he needs a bit of time to open, but when you reach this point it is delicious.
