Plantation XO 20th Anniversary

An amazing rum, one of my all-time favorites rums. Always in my shelf to drink

On the nose vanilla with alcohol with a slight citrus note. On the way down its a funny rum to me it goes down without a fuss then boom you have a dry coconut taste with a slight vanilla taste a little bit pepperery. Ok rum for its cost but not a 9 or 10 like many reviews on here

First a sniff of vanilla and caramel. Mmm!
Then the taste, ooh, vanilla, caramel and spices rolling around in your mouth.
More of this? Yes please.

Light, fresh, playful, smooth. This is a high end rum.

Veel twijfel voor een 8 of 9, maar echt een topper. Heel subtiel en vol van smaak. Heerlijk zacht in de neus en een lekker fruitige zoete smaak.

Mooie lekkere bruine rum met krachtige nasmaak. Een van mijn favorieten

Presentation, smell, taste, everything about this rum screams "class".
Not very sweet, very complex and aromatic, smooth, easy to drink.
Top sipper, ofc to be drank neat or cooled.

Tropical ageing : 8 -15 years. The rums are chosen for their struture with aromatic characteristics suited for intensive oak ageing.
Continental ageing : 2-10 years. A blend of very old rums, finished in many different types of casks ranging from new white oak to Bourbon casks as well as Ferrand casks, each with different level of toasting.
The above excerpts are from official instructions.
Not particularly brilliant, but the overall performance is not bad, lacking a sense of hierarchy

This is one of the first sipping rums I tried, it is often a favorite when I host a rum tasting night

Sweet present!! Tastes like a real Carribian rhum should taste!
