Mount Gay XO Extra Old

A little vanilla and chocolate taste. Nice colour.

Has a stronger finish than others I have tried. The slight Moca flavor adds to it enjoyment

Paid $49.99 in NYC. A really nice nose, rich dark color. This is definitely a rum with a fuller body. I read the label and found out it is 43% alcohol, which explains the full body. Not as sweet as the Plantation XO, but quite enjoyable neat.

Good choice as a daily use, or standby rum. Good nose, smooth on the palate, nice finish. Good sipping rum, or top-shelf mixed drink ingredient. If drinking it neat, I'd recommend letting it breathe 20 minutes or so, brings the scent out more, with less "burn" in the nose.

Très bon, mais rien d'original. Bon rapport qualité-prix. Bon seul, ou pour mixer.

Very good, but nothing original. Good value for money. Good alone, or to mix.

First time I had this I drunk it straight. Very nice. Best one in my cabinet so far, I am most drawn to spiced rums and I really enjoyed this one.

My benchmark for any rums, at pretty much any price point (with a few exceptions...). It's a very complex spirit, and only gets better at each experience. Beautful balance between the spiceness and sweetness. Very highly recommended!

You can tell its an well aged high quality rum. One of the dryer rums I have tried. It is not the best i have come across but i prefer it to the overly sweet rums like zaya and plantation xo.

Well balanced sweetness, taste of molasses and toffee, afterburn okay.

As for almost every rum, let it breathe in the glass. Smell is good.

Mount Gay is the oldest brand of rum produced to date, so I credit a history too.
