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

Good flavor with vanilla and caramel tones. Smooth and sipable.
Because of this rum I started drinking rums. I was lucky I got this one as a gift. It opened my eyes about rums. After few years tasting diferent rums, this one is still the best. But I havent tried more expensive ones yet.
A very smooth rum that is perfect to drink pure or in a mix ( but i think that mixing this rum is a waste of the rum) hints of vanilla and oak. Not to sweet just perfect for me!

I would describe Plantation XO 20th to lack some character. It has a bit sweet and very mild fruity approach to the nose. Some say that it has some coconut flavour, maybe a bit of vanilla - and the barrel of course.
Very easy to drink and not that much after taste. I can see why people enjoy this. I would probably use this as an introduction to the rum world.
A rum as you would expect, nice flavor and long finish. Definitely worth it.

Great rum, my current favourite out a fair few we have tried.
Very smooth, can be neat or on the rocks.
For me a vanilla hint, it is sweet as well, but the rum does contain a bit more sugar than normal.
Well worth the buy.

This rum is very cool! I got this for my birthday, and as this, it was a really huge thing. The taste comes very gentle and every sip gets more intense. I really love the balance, strongly recommended!

I'm often puzzled by complex descriptions of nose and initial palate etc. I like to keep it simple. It's the finish on your palate that dominates your obverse experience. The finish on this one is demerara sugar. It doesn't taste like rum. Even with coke, it still dominates. Super over rated. Wasted my money and would never buy again

The occasion is moree important than the rum itself. This is what I would describe the Plantation XO with. Relatively sweet with hints of vanilla and coconut and very easy to drink. Nothing spectacular but I enjoyed a good occasion and the rum nicely complimented that!
It tastes pretty much like a coconut liqueur.
"An overly sweet saccharin note which make the rum taste artificial. ."

Angenehme, zurückhaltende Süsse, samtig weich im Geschmack, lang anhaltender Angang, nicht die geringste Spur von Alkoholschärfe. Geschmack nach Kokos, Zimt und Muskat, dezentes Holz im Hintergrund mit leichten fruchtigen Noten. Wichtig ist es dem Rum ein wenig Zeit im Glas zu geben - dann ist er so richtig gut!
