Rick Caribbean XO 8 Years Old Smooth Rum 40% is a molasses-based Caribbean rum, blended from carefully selected matured and younger rums. The individual components are distilled using the column still method and then aged in ex-bourbon casks made of American oak. The age statement of 8 years reflects the maturity of this XO bottling, whilst the blending of components aged to varying degrees ensures a balanced and approachable overall profile. The combination of molasses as the raw material, continuous distillation and American oak results in a rum with a classic Caribbean character, where soft cask notes and the natural richness of the sugar cane distillate take centre stage.

With an alcohol content of 40%, Rick Caribbean XO 8 Years Old is deliberately smooth and pleasantly accessible. Maturation in ex-bourbon casks imbues the rum with typical vanilla, spice and woody nuances, whilst the blending adds further depth and balance. This smooth rum is bottled in a 0.5-litre bottle and comes with a gift box. In this way, Rick Caribbean combines traditional Caribbean rum-making with column still distillation, ageing in ex-bourbon casks and XO character to create a versatile bottling for enjoying neat or in classic rum-based drinks.
