Plantation 20th Anniversary XO – Barbados Rum (Miniature)
Brand: Plantation Rum | Category: XO Aged Rum | ABV: 40% | Origin: Barbados | Vol: 50ml

Tasting Profile:
Nose: Rich and aromatic with inviting notes of coconut cream, banana flambé, vanilla bean, and toasted oak, like stepping into a Caribbean patisserie.

Finish: Long and luxurious, vanilla, toasted almond, and cocoa linger on the palate, making a soft, elegant exit.
