PLANTATION RUM PLANTATION XO - 20 YEARS- BARBADOS

Product description

RUM PLANTATION XO - 20 JAHRE - BARBADOS 

In honor of Alexandre Gabriel's 20th anniversary as Master Blender, we created the 20th anniversary of Plantation XO with a blend of extra old rums from Barbados.

Over a decade later, we are still very proud of this rum, which continues to receive praise and top awards.

This rum is first aged in bourbon barrels in Barbados for many years and then sailed across the ocean in barrels in south-west France to be further matured in small French oak barrels from Ferrand.

This centuries-old "double aging" process gives an incredible smoothness and complexity. It reveals a refined palate of chocolate, vanilla, ripe banana, toasted coconut and a hint of fresh mango notes. With a remarkably long finish, Plantation XO 20th Anniversary is a real rum to enjoy.

Aroma
The stunning floral / fruity opening aroma is transcendent and then releases the scent of vanilla, cocoa and milk chocolate.

Taste
The wonderful mango notes testify to its advanced age, which is due to the long aging in French oak barrels.
