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.

Gifted a friend with this bottle and he was more than happy. Very balanced enjoyable flavor profile with absolutely no burn on the way down.

A hint of coconut at the start. And then its smooth sailing till the end. Doesn't get much better than this
Wonderful nose, can smell the cognac as well as a hint in the taste!!!

This is the best sipping rum I have had yet. A friend and I finished a bottle in one night. We couldn't put it down.

A nice sipping rum at $48 in NJ. I got hints of vanilla. Smooth but a bit less than Zacapa XO.

Comme tjs la marque plantation nous offre tout son savoir faire, le tout au top de la marque dans ce produit.un gout vanille au debut puis vite sur l orange.puis il se finit sur une tres longue fin de bouche sur la coco grillee legere.magnifique.....
Note 9.6 car je laisse une possibilite de mettre plus par la suite.A essayer absolument!!!!
The presentation, both for your eyes and nose is perfect. The alcohol is balanced and there is a nice complexity in both the taste and smell. I've only just started the bottle, but have tried and enjoyed it various ways (straight, mixed, w/ water, w/ice) via various tiny to large glasses. My preferred method of imbibe is from a stemless wine glass with a single ice cube.

Superb in any way, just perfect drink. Could be too good if it can ever be like that...Been tasting it in a bar, it is expensive, yes, but you have one life to live.
I belive next choise for me would be a whole bottle.
Fantastic drink, deserves 10 points!
