Mount Gay Eclipse

DA
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.

An unremarkable light-bodied rum. Would not use for anything other than mixed drinks and I prefer Appleton VX for that anyways.

Può andare bene in miscelazione o per qualche shot

A very forgettable rum. Not special in any way. But not terrible either.

A nice rum yes but much better in a cocktail than as an unfinished product

I really enjoy using this rum, it's a great all around Bajan that works well in all kinds of drinks. Light spices, vanilla, caramel, even a little pepper on the nose. On taste, I get a lot of those spices coming through, toasted oak with undertones of vanilla and caramel. Great for the price and easy to find. No complaints here, This rum'll fit on any bartenders shelf.

This did not remotely taste like a rum, it had a whisky taste to it, really did not enjoy

Pretty mild flavor, it was good in a daiquiri though.

Completely serviceable rum for cocktails, and a step up from similar rums at this price point. I made eggnog with it recently, and it was great. A bit too light for sipping but if you’re in the store ready to pick up Bacardi for mixed drinks and see this one, grab it instead. You’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Tasted at Laka Lono on 10/14/21. Aroma of bananas and honey. Treacle flavors. Strong pepper finish.
