Multiple | Aged | 40% ABV | Pot and Column Still Distilled
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.

Very smooth, not too sweet, excellent nose, practically no alcohol burn. You can feel that last cognac cask it rested briefly. Love it! Wish to find similar taste profile.

Taste toasted marshmallows. Smooth upfront finishes with a little bite. This is one I will buy again.

Nagyon jó, különleges íz. Kellemesen lágy, érződik a sherry hordós érlelés.

I mean, it's sippable. Way too sweet. Just put some simple syrup in some Real McCoy.

Plantation has a lot of depth to their product offerings but this is one of the few that is consistently everywhere. Good reason - it's amazing. Treat yourself!

This is a slightly flavored rum, as it has hints of coconut and vanilla. But the main flavor is the aged rum, and the hints of added flavor complement the aged rum perfectly, without overpowering it. It tastes wonderful. A good rum value; at only $64.99 from BevMo! (2015), it's better than a great number of more expensive rums I've tried. One of the best rums I've had, period!
