PYRAT XO Reserve Rum
Pyrat XO Reserve is an ultra-premium Caribbean dark rum crafted for sipping. This rich, amber-coloured blend brings together carefully selected Caribbean rums, many aged up to 15–16 years in American and French oak barrels, to deliver a smooth, layered profile with distinctive citrus sweetness.
On the nose, Pyrat XO is rich and inviting, opening with sweet citrus – orange peel, tangerine and lemon – wrapped in vanilla, brown sugar, caramel, honey and warm spice. The palate is mellow and almost dessert-like, featuring flavours of orange zest, vanilla, brown sugar, molasses, cola and toasted oak, with subtle hints of baking spices. The finish is sweet, long-lasting and orange-forward, leaving lingering notes of citrus and cola.
Inspired by 19th-century pirate rum bottles, Pyrat XO comes in a distinctive, handcrafted decanter-style bottle, adorned with a Hoti medallion – the zen protector and patron saint of bartenders, symbolising good cheer and prosperity. Created by Patrón Spirits, this bottling captures the “spirit of exploration”, making it an ideal starting point for dark rum drinkers who enjoy a playful, citrus-accented style.
Enjoy Pyrat XO Reserve neat, on the rocks, or as a base for rich, flavour-packed cocktails. Its naturally sweet, orange-driven profile adds exceptional depth to Old Fashioned riffs, rum sours and tropical serves, making it a favourite in home bars, cocktail lounges and premium rum collections across Malaysia, Singapore and the wider Asia-Pacific region.
