Plantation - Rhum XO 20th Anniversary Barbades

Key words: Gourmet / Rich / Chocolate

The spirit : This XO rum from the Plantation brand represents the quintessence of the Caribbean. Created to celebrate Alexandre Gabriel's 20th year as Master Blender of Maison Ferrand, here is a assemblage of rums aged 12 to 20 years, all from Barbados. If its breeding was carried out largely in tropical latitudes, this sublime spirit also benefited from 12 to 18 months of finishing in Cognac barrels at Château de Bonbonet in France. This double aging gives it nobility and character. We find on the palate a beautiful substance and a very great richness carried by cocoa notes, aromas of coffee, vanilla, coconut as well as a completely blended woodiness. Sublime delicacy, it is sufficient in itself and will also pair wonderfully with chocolate desserts.

Type: Molasses rum

Capacity: 70cl

The brand: The rums in the range Plantation come from the best distilleries in the Caribbean (Barbados, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, Nicaragua, Panama or Trinidad). The brand's collection is divided into two distinct ranges: on one side blends and on the other vintage rums. The blends are blends refined by Alexandre Gabriel, cellar master at Maison Ferrand. As for vintages, they come directly from the barrel and are available in limited quantities. The Ferrand house which markets the Plantation brand is located in Angeac, in the golden triangle of Cognac.  Moreover, certain rums are sometimes finished in barrels from the region in order to exacerbate their complexity. A benchmark brand in the spirits sector that you can trust with your eyes closed to surprise your taste buds!
