The origins of rum: PLANTERAY Rum explores the largest and most traditional rum terroirs in the world. From the Caribbean, where rum was invented in Barbados in the 17th century, to the Indian and Pacific Oceans, each rum expresses the unique character and identity of its country of origin.
Secrets from Barbados: In the nose, the XO 20th Anniversary unfolds floral notes, accompanied by vanilla and milk chocolate. On the palate, the XO shows itself as a real deliciousness, opening first with cinnamon and then revealing a spicy body that harmonises deliciously balanced with biscuit-like and chocolaty notes combined with hints of honey, butter and coconut.
PLANTATION becomes PLANTERAY: New name, same rum.
Double ripening: XO 20th Anniversary is the result of combining excellent Barbados rum and French know-how. He celebrates the 20th anniversary of cellar master Alexandre Gabriel at PLANTERAY. This blend of very old Barbados rums first matures locally in bourbon barrels before being stored in French oak barrels in southwest France for a few years.
Cocktail art: this extraordinary rum can be enjoyed pure or on ice. It also adds a special touch to classic cocktails, such as the old-fashioned. This rum has been awarded at the most prestigious international tasting competitions and received the gold medal at the Spirits Business Rum and Cachaça Masters 2024, among others. With more than 55 gold medals, it is the most awarded XO rum in the world.

Every year in October, dancers now move through the streets to celebrate one of the largest and most magnificent festivals in the Philippines. Impressively, it symbolises the resistance and cheerful nature of the locals.
Don Papa Masskara is refined with the following ingredients: Siling Labuyo: a small, wild growing chili native to the Philippines. It is considered one of the hottest chilies in the world. Calamansi: a cross between mandarin and kumquat. Native to the Philippines and sour in taste. Similar to a lime. Filipino Honey: Produced by four different tropical honey bees in the Philippines, with more moisture and fructose content.
Don Papa Masskara - a tribute to the MASSKARA FESTIVAL. The colourful festival was created in the middle of a crisis of the island of s. At that time, prices for locally harvested sugar cane dropped. And that affected the standard of living. Together with the local artist community and the villagers, the famous Masskara Festival was launched.
Don Papa MassKara is simply incomparable. He celebrates the Philippines. He celebrates the rum. It is for anyone looking for an explosion of the senses. We carefully blend our American oak aged rum with a pot still infusion of local Filipino ingredients.
Aroma: Rich honey aromas with hints of fresh citrus fruits. Flavour: soft and fruity, with delicate notes of honey, candied fruit and deliciously sweet citrus in a perfect balance. Finish: Long and strong with a gorgeous finish.
