Hi, I am planning to buy some fine rum as a present for my longtime friend, but I am not quite sure which one to choose. My choice is between Zacapa Centenario 23yo and Plantation XO 20th Anniversary. I am not an expert when it comes to rums, the only better rum we had together so far was Diplomatico, which we truly enjoyed. Both rums have a similar score in the list (8,6) and amazing reviews, so I think neither of them will be a bad choice, but I would rather ask experts. Which one do you think I should choose? Kind regards, V.

That is easy - Plantation XO 20th Anniversary (and I will be looking for yet another bottle today!). After my experience with Zacapa 23 Solera, I will no longer buy any more from Zacapa. However, I just broke down and bought a bottle of Zacapa XO. It is very good, but not worth the high price. The Plantation XO 20th is the best bargain hands down for rums costing $40 US or more.

I'm probably too late in responding, but I agree that the Plantation XO is the right choice.
