A superb-looking decanter bottle of XO rum from Barbados, aged in bourbon barrels before being shipped to France for a secondary maturation in Cognac casks from the Ferrand house. The result is a well balanced rum with a remarkably long finish, with a palate of chocolate, banana, coconut and mango. Now this is some very good stuff.
Hints of spicy oak on the nose, with guava, a little desiccated coconut and dried banana. Buttery.
Spiced, creamy palate entry, with sweet vanilla notes and caramel. Oaky spices.
Caramel. Toasted oak.

Beginning of the taste is good but then harsh alcohol and strong bitter taste.. yew.. Eldorado 15 and Ron Zacapa 23 was much smoother. Its ok to mix it in cocktail.
Amazing rum!!!
This rum is so smooth, you might think you are drinking a cocktail with a bit of sugar added. Unbelievably good. I have tried about 50 different rums and don't buy rum that costs more than $100 a liter and this is the #1 best I have ever tried. $400 and $1000 rums probably better, but why bother ?
Best rum I've had. Taste great neat or add a dash of mineral water to release the hidden notes. Worth the price and highly recommended.
This is a smooth and very sweet rum. There is hardly any dry notes. It is basically the opposite of Agricole types. So if you are looking for a more balanced rum. This is not the one.
