Planteray XO 20th Anniversary Rum
To honor Alexandre Gabriel’s 20th anniversary as Master Blender, Planteray XO 20th Anniversary was created using a blend of quintessential extra-old rums from Barbados.
First aged in bourbon casks in Barbados for many years, this rum is then sailed across the ocean in barrels to the southwest of France to be further matured in small Ferrand French oak casks.
This centuries-old “double aging“ process imparts incredible smoothness and complexity. It unveils a sophisticated palate of chocolate, vanilla, ripe banana, roasted coconut and a hint of fresh mango notes. With a remarkably long finish, Planteray XO 20th Anniversary is truly a rum to savor.
