I don't get easily surprised...but this one did it. If I can put my reaction into one word it would be, smooth.
Despite the "XO" rating there's not much oak to this one. It's there...but its not as strong as you'd expect.
This is a rum that deserves to be from Barbados! It's not cheap but you'll understand the price tag when you enjoy the quality and taste. This is a rum drinker's rum.
A last minute purchase with not much background on this rum. What an exciting and raw taste that took me by complete surprise. This has easily become one of my favourites.

Are corpolenta, gust bogat si rafinat. Caracteristica de baza sunt aromele care raman in paladin. Putin cam scump dar merita incercat.

This Rum is just as Rum should be. Not too sweet, lots of aromas, long lasting. For 30β¬ the best I got so far.

I am a fan of Mount Gay and that just keeps it going for me. I like the regular mount gay a lit and with the XO it just makes me want more from Mount Gay. I know next time I'm in Barbados I have to go on the distillery tour.

Real enjoyed this bottle. It's dark but not thick. Lots of flavor that comes across every drink. Absolutely worth the cost.

With a good cigar and a warm evening. We grill fish then sit back and enjoy MGXO on the rocks with a good cigar.

Tasted with a dear rum-drinking friend of mine. Due to the reviews I would never have bought one since it would be more for whiskey lovers. It is a really well balanced rum with a nice alcohol-bite. Then comes a little sweetness wich lingers on for a while. Will certainly go out and buy one.

This was enjoyable but I preferred the mount gay eclipse more even though it's not as "premium" asXO

Trying to get past the sweet rums which Iβve been tasting as a beginner. Didnβt really knock me off my feet. I put a pinch of brown sugar in it and then it was enjoyable. I guess Iβm still stuck in the sweet rum stage !
