Production of Barbados XO by Plantation

The Barbados XO is made from a selection of top-quality sugarcane distillates. These come from the Barbados region, known for its ideal climate and fertile soil. The production process begins with the careful selection of sugarcane, which is freshly harvested and pressed to extract the valuable sugarcane juice. After fermentation, distillation follows, occurring in traditional pot stills as well as modern column stills. This double-column distillation yields various flavor profiles that are later harmoniously combined. After distillation, the rum matures for over 8 years in selected oak barrels, which gives it its complex aroma and deep golden color. A final blending of the different rums ensures that every drop of the Barbados XO delivers an unforgettable experience.
