Plantation XO 20th Anniversary

Perfect for sipping on ice. Great nose and strong taste of alcohol.

Good flavour but a bit too sweet.
A bit smokey, and less vanilla than the last anniversary rum from Plantation

NAJBOLJŠI RUM KAR JIH JE … TOP... VREDEN VSAKEGA EVRA...

Excellent rhum, trop sucré pour certain. Tout est une question de goût.

There was alot of hype around this rum so picked it up and it was OK. There are alot of rums out there that are better for this price point.

Lika spännande som flaskans utformning. En helt okej rom med lagom styrka och sötma.

Color, aroma, taste, sweetness. It all works very well. The new bottle is cool, not as cool as the old one... But I'm nostalgic. Bought another one already!

Definitely fruity... spicy and sweet... little bit to fruity for me but still really good. You can definitely taste vanilla, banana, coconut.... cinnamon....and other good flavors.

This was the second of Plantation's range I have tried, and I really like them both.
The nose and initial taste is all about coconut, lightly toasted. There's a smidge of vanilla, sofk oak, honey and caramel. It feels a little burny, but meh ... that doesn't really bother me too much unless I'm swirling it around in my mouth for so long that I forget I have rum in there and breathe-in.
Top-tip ... do not inhale your rum. It will make you cough and possibly cry a bit.
I originally scored this an 8, but I found that once the bottle has been opened for a couple of weeks, a lot of the coconut and honey elements have faded.
The first taste was bloody lovely, though!

Внушительная бутылка толстого стекла с помпезной пробкой. Дёшево выглядящая соломенная оплётка не сочетается с золотыми буквами и логотипом. Аромат французы умеют делать: изысканные духи, кожа, лак, мёд, дубовая бочка. Во вкусе сладость, даже приторность, маслянистость, горечь, терпкость и много чего ещё. Восторг вызывает, но усиленный кислотами и замаскированный сахарами алкоголь непременно обжигает нёбо и тяжело заходит в желудок. Гастрономически может сочетаться с чем угодно, это плюс. Такой праздничный, карнавальный ром, не элитный.
