Kaniché Rum XO Double Wood Artisanal Rum is a high-quality premium rum from Barbados that combines the Caribbean rum tradition with French barrel-ageing expertise. After an initial maturation period of several years in young ex-bourbon casks in the tropical climate of the Caribbean, the rum is not bottled straight away, but is transported to France for a second phase of maturation. There, the Kaniché XO Double Wood is given its distinctive finish by the Cognac Ferrand house in the Cognac region, where it is aged in small Cognac casks. This elaborate double ageing process lends the rum additional depth, elegance and a particularly harmonious structure. Bottled at 40% ABV in a 0.7-litre bottle, the result is an exceptional artisanal rum for discerning connoisseurs.


The technique of double cask ageing was already in use in the 18th and 19th centuries and requires a great deal of experience to ensure that the second cask ageing complements the original character of the distillate without overpowering it. Cognac Ferrand’s expertise ensures that Kaniché Rum XO Double Wood achieves a successful blend of Caribbean maturation and French refinement. The result is a well-balanced XO rum that combines exotic fruits, subtle spice and elegant oak notes, and is sure to delight lovers of smooth, complex rums in particular.
