The J.Bally XO rum is a distinguished product from the renowned region of Martinique, aged for a minimum of 6 years in accordance with the AOC Martinique standards. This exquisite rum is a testament to the unique terroir of the region, offering a rich and complex flavor profile that masterfully balances rustic charm with refined elegance.
Upon the first encounter, the nose is greeted by a captivating blend of fruit and wax, accompanied by aromas of nuts, prunes, and earthy wood. Subtle undertones of dried fruits and honey emerge, with a delicate vinegary note reminiscent of Armagnac. The aroma is robust yet not overpowering, marked by a distinct sense of place and a touch of acidity that intensifies with aeration.
On the palate, J.Bally XO reveals itself as a full-bodied and well-balanced rum, delivering a honeyed sweetness intertwined with a hint of milk chocolate. The spicy notes of cane sugar are beautifully complemented by the bitterness of mineral-rich white rum, infused with a hint of citrus. The mid-palate introduces a return of the wood, now powdery and nutty, seamlessly joined by a fusion of prunes and other dried fruits.
The finish is long and intricate, characterized by the bitterness of citrus zest, enhanced by the tannins of black fruits such as blackcurrant and blackberry. Bally XO is also celebrated for its distinctive triangular bottle, an homage to the iconic Montagne Pelée. It is a rum of great depth and authenticity, a true expression of its terroir, with additional notes of figs and blond tobacco.

The bottle is known for its distinctive triangular shape, which is a nod to the Montagne Pelée, a symbol of Martinique.
Reviewers describe J.Bally XO as a high-quality agricole rum from Martinique, praised for its wonderful nose, spicy and well-balanced palate, and long, spicy finish with hints of toffee. While some find it slightly inferior to other rums at the same price point, it is still regarded as a very good product and a must-try for fans of agricole rums. The blend of aged rums from 7 to 12 years results in a well-controlled woodiness, mellow fruitiness, and a good length, making it a beautiful achievement for Bally Heritage.
