Dry fruits, vanilla, spice and elegant woody notes. A blend of Caribbean rums aged by Planteray, rich, silky and with fine length.
The Rhum Planteray XO 20th Anniversary is a singular cuvée created to celebrate twenty years of Alexandre Gabriel as master blender of Planteray rums, an assembly of Barbadian rums aged 12 to 20 years that embodies the full expression of the island.
A bottle presented by Planteray, blending rums from Barbados aged in place then finished in French oak casks that once held Cognac from the Ferrand house. This rum is bottled at 40 degrees. Planteray remains one of the most recognised houses for its mastery of double maturation, and this XO 20th Anniversary continues its signature style, the fruit of Alexandre Gabriel's meticulous work according to traditional Barbadian methods.
Ageing and origin
Matured first under tropical climate in Barbados, then finished in French oak casks that once held Cognac, this rum marries the woody and fruited richness typical of Barbadian rums with the finesse inherited from the second Cognac maturation. Double maturation, the house's signature, accelerates ageing under tropical climate before lending, during finishing in French oak, an additional touch of complexity and elegance. This blend of rums aged 12 to 20 years, the work of Ferrand house's master of the cellar, reflects all the traditional knowledge of Barbados in the conduct of distillation and ageing.
Tasting profile
On the nose, a floral and fruited freshness reveals itself first, before releasing notes of vanilla, cocoa and milk chocolate. The colour is an attractive bronze, witness to the long maturation in French oak casks. On the palate, delicious woody notes mingle with mango, the signature of an advanced age and patient ageing. The finish is spiced, complex and persistent, prolonging at length the woody and fruited aromas of this blend.
The house
Planteray is a rum house recognised for its double maturation technique, combining tropical ageing and finishing in casks that have held other spirits. This XO 20th Anniversary cuvée pays homage to Alexandre Gabriel, master of the cellar at Ferrand house and craftsman of this blend, who has known how to marry the traditional methods of Barbados with his expertise in French oak ageing.
Tasting and pairings
This Planteray XO 20th Anniversary is best enjoyed neat or with a single stone, in a tulip glass, to fully appreciate the woody richness and fruited complexity of this blend. It also lends itself very well to tasting at the end of a meal. It will find fine harmony with a mango dessert, intense dark chocolate, a light cigar or aged hard cheese, whose richness will respond beautifully to the woody generosity and spiced complexity characteristic of this rum.
