Plantation XO VAP
A stunning commemorative kit with a bottle of Plantation 20th Anniversary XO Rum and two glasses. This is a sophisticated blend of mature rums from Barbados which are also partly matured in France — ranging in age from 12-20 years with each component receiving 2-10 of those years ageing in small French cognac barrels.

Tasting Notes from the Producer
Aromas (without water)
The stunning flora/fruity opening aroma is transcendent, ethereal and intensely marshmallow-like; further time in the sampling glass of eight minutes releases additional fragrance of vanilla, cocoa and milk chocolate.
Flavour
Entry is cinnamon-like and gently sweet, as the sugary molasses taste turns very soft and chewy; mid-palate taste profile reminds me of holiday spice cake, rum-flavored chocolates and sugar cookies. Concludes medium-long, delicate and only mildly sweet. Three years on, the quality has remained as constant as the North Star.
