Plantation Rum XO 20th Anniversary is obtained from the blend of the oldest Barbadian reserves of Maison Ferrand (between 12 and 20 years old). After many years spent in the tropical latitudes of the Antilles, these rums are then taken to the Château de Bonbonnet to be worked by the cellar master. The blend is finally left in small cognac barrels for a period of 12 to 18 months. This double aging system gives Plantation Rum XO 20th Anniversary great maturity and nobility of character.
Laurent's tasting notes
Its color is amber.
On the nose, it's the toasted (or even fried) coconut that immediately comes to the fore, and is increasingly present! Vanilla and orange add to this rum's gourmet character.
On the palate, it's also greedy and soft (without being too sweet). It's the vanilla that takes center stage here, relegating the coconut to second place. The texture of this rum is also gourmand.
The finish is dominated by coconut, and not just a little. There's also the sensation of something fatty and unctuous.

Typical rum, i.e. highly dependent on personal taste.

Cocorico, the French touch from Charente has struck again!
Peniche
Okay, it's a very good rum, but 3 times more expensive than the Diplomatico Reserva. Three times better ... not sure.
Claire
Delicious! I come back very often, it's my little darling.
Valentin
Excellent value for money. A sure bet.
Olivier
A magnificent "canapé" rum. To be drunk (in moderation) with connoisseur friends...
Graziella
For a slightly higher budget than other very good rums (such as Diplo Reserva Exclusiva) it really is better. I always like to come back to it and it always pleases the people I give it to.
Marie
Delicious with coconut and caramel. Great value for money.
What's more, it's packed quickly and neatly!
