Plantation XO 20th Anniversary

Beautiful vanilla tones. Smooth and aged well. Top notch rum for sure.
Pricey but well worth it

Really easy to drink, goes smooth in the throat ! As sweet as a rum should be ! 10/10 would buy again !

A snazzy looking decanter bottle of XO rum from Barbados, aged in bourbon barrels before being shipped to France for a secondary maturation in Cognac Casks.
Nose: Hints of spicy oak on the nose, with guava, some coconut and dried banana. Buttery.
Palate: Spiced, creamy palate entry, with sweet vanilla notes and caramel. Oaky spices.
With a toasted oak caramel finish.
Tasty and good value for the $$

This is the one I reach for when I have company over who have never sipped a rum before. Great nose, just sweet enough, a little burn and great, long finish. Almost too easy to drink, my friends and I love this stuff so much we buy it by the case!

Very good rum, not very sweet in my opinion. It has a wooden bottle top.
This bottle will be one of my favorites.

very good price / performance
You really need this one in your collection

The sugar in it helps smooth it out and there's is a nice sweetness to it but it still tastes relatively young compared to other highly rated sweet rums like Diplomatico R.E. or El Dorado 15 yr. I suppose I expected it to be sweeter in the way of a Demerara rum but with a Bajan flair. Decent rum but not worth the price tag IMHO. Similar taste to Kaniche XO which is made by the same place and significantly cheaper if u can find it. Update: One of the most overrated/overpriced rums there is, it’s ok but definitely not great. Your money is better spent elsewhere.

was a gift from my wife for our anniversary.. enjoyed both over rocks and mixed... will definitely buy again.. was a bit expensive but enjoyed

Denne rom kæmper lidt med mine meget store forventninger. Det er faktisk en god rom, og jeg overvejede et 8-tal. Men på grund af min skuffelse får den kun 7. Den har en fin duft af vanille, og man kan godt ane lidt smag af kokos, men rommen føles ikke så dyb i nuancerne. Problemet er, at den er meget sprittet til at starte med, og det er det, der skuffer. Efter 10 minutter er det meget bedre, men førstehåndsindtrykket trækker den ned. (Nu er hele flasken drukket, og jeg savner den faktisk. Mine smagspræferencer inden for rom har ændret sig det sidste års tid i takt med at jeg har smagt mange. Og derfor har jeg ændret til et 8-tal. Jeg overvejer at købe en ny flaske, og så kan der være jeg bevæger mig op til 9)

Smagt igen i 2021:
Blød og frugtig duft med karamel. Smag af honning og vanilje. En smule varm, men også blød. Jeg fastholder 8-tallet. (1. december 2021 i 1423)
