Mount Gay 1703 Old Cask

So I have bench marked this against plantation 20 year old XO. Not as smooth as if you are a lover of whisky. Has a slightly medical taste and not the smooth sweet molasses taste of a rum.

You don't always want to spend a lot on a bottle of rum but then you don't want a spice rum either. The choice you make is a nice and solid Mount Gay

A nice looking bottle that comes in a cheap paperbox (picture).

When you first smell the rum you find it a bit sticky but when it rests for a few minutes you get a nice smell of fruit, honey and oak.

The taste is a bit sweet with vanilla, oak and spice. You also sense some oak and spice on the quite long aftertaste.

I think this rum nice but a bit overpriced.

For the price should have blown me away but not even close. Solid sipper but should have delivered more

Un rhum assez sec pour un de la Barbade. Il est très long en bouche bien qu'encore trop sec pour moi. Bonne dégustation!

Geweldige neus, niet te zoet. De alcohol bijt wel direct na het schenken, dus even 'decanteren'. Wel prijzig.

Another level of Mount Gay, much better than XO. Excelent texture and finish, a lot of flavor in palatin. Good job Mount Gay.

I don't know why, but I didn't like the taste... maybe bad day while tasting. I have to taste it another time.

Sehr guter Geschmach. Etwas hart im Abgang #rumnoob

Very dry and sharp. It is little bit like agricole, but not too much. For this price it should be better. Disappointed.
