Mount Gay XO Triple Cask

Elegant Rum ; vanilla and light smoke kicking in
In my opinion this MG is a good entrance for Rhum to those are Whiskey lovers
Not too sweet ; elegant but somehow fruity and has its funky

A very enjoyable rum. Could be sipped very easily. Good taste, fairly smooth.

Good concentrated and extractive rum, a bit harsh on the opening, but complex and layered, not the sweet type. Medium complexity, needs to be a bot chilled, great value for the price.

Bought this rum while staying in Barbados. While it is aromatic, I found it burning my throat. Colour is perfect. Might be to the taste of drier rum lovers.

I have never had any Mount Gay rums yet, but this one was expensive, seemingly well aged and got a really high rating on here. I asked for it as a gift(because of the price) and it seems to be what everyone is saying it is. Definitely less sweet than the Barbados rums I’m use to, but definitely not any less flavorful. It will be hard to follow this one up when it comes to other Mount Gay expressions, but then again, maybe I won’t even need to

It`s oak, vanilla, leather some spices, not sweet. But I can't find in taste triple cask, perhaps maturation was short.

Questo rum non è male per niente.
Il profumo che si sprigiona dal bicchiere è intenso.
Al palato risulta alcoolico, ma con diverse sfumature legnose piacevoli.
Retrogusto sulla lingua abbastanza persistente.
Poco dolce, ma non lo definerei secco come il Boukman, per esempio.
Promosso, questo rum non stanca.

Bought this because of it's Barbados history, and it will be a regular in my cabinet. Beautiful color, subtle sweetness, at an excellent price point.

Tasted at Laka Lono July 23, 2023
Appearance: amber
Aroma: brown sugar, caramel, band-aid, mandarin. This reminds me of the orange flavor brachs filled toffees of the 70s
Flavor: peaty, funky, caramel, a delightful medley of flavor. This is a great sipper, I know I will enjoy it as a Rickie, and would be lovely in many many recipes

This rum is very smooth. There’s a sweet fruity tobacco nose that lends itself well into the taste. This almost like a vanilla infused pipe tobacco. I’ll have to revisit this one and update my review as I’m simply doing a quick taste in a glencairn glass. The Mount Gay XO lineup has been my favorite rums to date, and this sits well with those others.
