Pyrat XO Reserve Rum
a distinctive, ultra-premium Caribbean blend celebrated for its signature citrus-forward style and smooth, indulgent character. Crafted from select rums aged up to 15 years in American and French Limousin oak, it delivers richness with a refined edge. Its iconic squat bottle, adorned with the Hoti medallion, evokes old-world maritime heritage—making it as striking to gift as it is to savour. Tasting Notes & Experience
Intense aromas of candied orange peel, honey and toasted oak rise from the glass. The palate is rich and syrupy, layered with marmalade, vanilla bean and brown sugar. A long, warming finish lingers with cinnamon spice and bright citrus zest, leaving a smooth, elegant impression. Key Details
