Pyrat XO Rum is produced from nine different Caribbean rums that are blended and then aged up to 15 years in used American sweet oak barrels.
The squat Pyrat XO rum bottle shape is inspired by the typical design of rum bottles kept by pirates and ship captains in the 19th century.

Light intense ochre-yellow in the glass.
High intensity in the nose with aroma's of mainly orange peel. Also some spices, but very well hidden behind the orange curtain.
On the palate, soft and smooth start. Here again the dominating orange peel and some spices.
This is a powerful rum that might be dominated by orange flavours, but it has a good mouth-feel, is well balanced and has a long finish.
I see some culinary opportunities with this one (eg roast duck).
Rum reminded me of Don Papa with the orange aroma's

I am a rookie taster and am developing my likes and dislikes while I learn the subtleties of what runs offer. This rum was a gift from a friend that enjoys rums and he thought it would be a good one to sample.
At first sip I found it to feel full bodied on the tongue but whoa! The initial taste was like gasoline to me. So I did as suggested and let it mellow with a cube of ice. After about 15 minutes the taste definitely improved. I cannot tell you about the subtleties of flavours other than it’s orange overtone that for me was pleasant enough. Next time around I may add a lemon twist or something to change things up a bit. Overall a decent sipping rum with potential to mix.

Was a gift. I enjoyed it but glad I did not buy it. Its better than average and I will never say no to it. But I prefer others better.
Pomerančová vůně. Sladký s chutí citrusových plodů s hořkým závěrem.

Skořice, vanilka a sudy od cherry - tímhle Vás dostane tahle láhev. Spíše komerčnější záležitost, ale stabilně v mé sbírce. Pro mě příjemný rum, který se dá popíjet celý večer.

I didn't expect so much after 6.1 rating here. Nice smell tropical fruits or candy fruits. Good balanced taste with fruits. For me one from better rums.

Strong and probably artificial tangerine smell and taste. Again after reading the label its not rum so I guess there are lot of aromas added.

Aroma: Pomeranče se zde mísí s hutnou zemitostí a vůní kůže.
Chuť: V chuti je krásně uhlazený, extrémně jemný ( neplést s nevýrazným), dominuje pomerančový nektar, vanilka, skořice.Ta jemnost a neskutečná uhlazenost v chuti je až zarážející.
Shrnutí: Uznávám, že je to rum velmi originální, který si pravděpodobně s ničím jiným nespletete, ale mně osobně svým charakterem zas až tak neučaroval,
myslím, že by hodně potěšil jako dárek spíše naše něžnější polovičky nebo maminky a babičky. Tím nechci říct, že chlapům nebude chutnat (kolegové z něj byli hodně nadšení).Určitě doporučuji, stojí to za vyzkoušení.
