J'ai commandé cette bouteille sans vraiment en attendre beaucoup et j'ai été très agréablement surpris : c'est rudement bien fait étant donné le prix ! Alors il n'a pas une forte personnalité, il ne laisse pas un souvenir impérissable, il n'est pas hors du commun mais ce qu'il fait il le fait bien. Il est très bien équilibré avec un juste dosage de sucre, d'épice et de fruit. Il se boit aisément avec beaucoup de plaisir sans jamais être ennuyeux. Bref à ce tarif c'est un grand standard à découvrir et à faire découvrir. Je n'hésiterai pas à le recommander à ceux qui souhaitent s'essayer au rhum !

A bit too much of a bite for me , i prefer it in a longer drink. Very flavoursome but the aftertaste is just a bit too much for my palette , good value though for a very decent and well made Barbados rum.

Inte för söt, mycket smak och ganska skarp men på ett bra sätt. Smakar naturlig sötma.

Great colour, brown rum, with a good aroma. This rum is good value, I would say. I would say this is an everyman, aged, rum; you keep it because most will find it a good sip. One of the few rums I can choose to drink on the rocks and can shot, but good with a mix. Versatile. Mildly sweet. Keep it for the ones you want coming back.

I love to sip XO. We got free bottles on our tour of the distillery with the VIP group. It's easy to find in the PA stores and helps me to keep from drinking all the 1703.

Handsomely complex sipper thats perfect on the rocks or in an old fashioned. Banana's, vanilla and light warm spices with a nice smooth finish.

I have to say a very nice XO rum not to strong on the nose, with just the right amount of sweetness. Somooth indeed with just the right amount of Finnish. Almost like sipping on a fine wine, with a nice aged taste of the molasses not burnt. My taste palette is not as fine as others but I wish it was so I can taste all the complexly witch this rum offers.
