had this rum recently

Barbados | Gold | 40% ABV

Mount Gay Eclipse rum is produced from molasses that is double distilled and aged up to 2 years in white Kentucky oak ex bourbon barrels.

Mount Gay is the oldest existing rum brand in the world, with it's oldest surviving deed being from 1703. The company developed the use of traditional double copper pot stills, a process that has been in continuous use by Mount Gay ever since its founding. The company's namesake Sir John Gay Alleyne was a good friend of John Sober who purchased the then Mount Gilboa distilleries in 1747.

This is really good neat. Sweet. It's also good as a mixer. Really enjoyed this one.

Let's be honest, it's a very cheap rum, but as a mixer it's actually decent for what it is

Sweet nose that is barely there on the palate, more alcohol than anything else. Had the Eclipse after a tour of the distillery.

This is a good rum for cocktails without any flaws but it won't stand out too much. Often a good value but not something to seek out. ...

Decently smooth, with a good taste. As it is also fairly affordable, it makes a great mixer and go-to "gold" rum.

This is one of the better ones that is stocked at most bars. A good choice for a cocktail party or other get together where the other choice is Bacardi Silver (like most places). I do enjoy it over other's that are typically stocked.

En nariz tiene aroma a roble persistente y dulce, en boca los primeros tramos en labios y mucosas son dulces hasta que llegan los 40 grados a las papilas de la lengua y empiezan a sturarlas dando ese quemazon largo, se perciben tonos de azúcar, caramelo algo de vainilla, en general no está mal y por el precio algo menos de 10€ por todo un litro no está mal.........pero hay otros rones que me agradan bastante más, eso sí más caros.
Si tuviera que beberlo a menudo lo usaría para mezclar, persoalmente me gustan rones más anejos y suaves........
