Mount Gay Black Barrel

Really enjoyed this rum, very decent for the price and always enjoy a nice glass, floral aroma and taste is woody with notes of sugar and burnt sugar

I actually didn’t mind this one. The oak and that bit of char that comes through. But to me it was a mixer with some coke and it was phenomenal.

Excluding the Mount Gay XO, this is my favorite of their products. Not overly sweet, but has that molasses/vanilla/caramel finish that stick with you. Has that deep pot-still boldness to it without being harsh. Has a fair amount of oak to it, but not overpowered. Overall, a solid choice without breaking the bank.

Solid rum. Is a little bit too bitter for my taste

Rhum traditionnel de la Barbade, le rhum Mount Gay Black Barrel est le fruit d'un savoureux assemblage de rhums distillés dans des alambics à repasse et de rhums âgés distillés dans un alambic à colonne.
Les black barrels sont les fûts de bourbon en chêne, brûlés, dans lesquels le rhum a terminé sa maturation. Ce procédé permet de faire ressortir des notes d'épices boisées.

Nez: notes d'épices, de bois grillé, et de fruits exotiques.

Bouche: belles notes d'épices boisées, on sent également d'agréables notes de vanille et de caramel bien équilibrées.

Finale: équilibrée et assez puissante.

Mounty Gay obdržen jako dárek. Šťiplavá, dřevitá chuť

Pretty good for the price, is worth it.
The nose feels like a good Bourbon, delicate and fruity aroma, and some vanilla.
The tasting is a little bit alcoholic but not overpowering, with some vanilla and caramel. Add a touch of water and this is where it shines, bringing some banana flavor. This is a new favorite for me, looking forward to other Mount Gay expressions to compare with this one.

For the price this one is a bargain. Yet MGXO is not that far away and its much better.

A vanilla forward Bajan style rum, that finishes with notes of caramel and sweet tobacco. For a Bajan, it's a little too bitter, immature, and one-note to be enjoyable on the rocks. For a similar price, you might as well drink Doorlys 8 or 12. Not a bad mixer in a pinch, did ok in a Boston Rum Punch.

Another great rum from the oldest and best producer in the rum world. A charcoaled caramel smoothie, bold but gentle delivery. Very nice straight or with ginger, just not quite an XO.
