Mount Gay Black Barrel

Really meets the expectations for this price. What you smell is what you taste.

I have had a few Mount Gay rums and they all are a bit too mild on the nose and mouth for my liking. My younger tasting colleague with a more sensitive nose and mouth also finds it too mild.

This is my first bottle and I am very happy with it. I had a few tastings at a local restaurant and really enjoyed sipping on rum. After much research I decided to buy a bottle of mount gay xo, sadly I couldn't find a bottle but I came across this and it had good reviews and as far as I can tell they don't add sugar to sweeten it. I enjoy all the different flavors that each sip brings, even my wife likes it. Over all a good choice. Im looking forward to expanding my rum palate.

I bought a few bottles in Barbados and for the money this rum is great. It can be sipped neat (I prefer adding a block of ice) and also tasted magical as part of a corn ‘n oil.

Big step up from the eclipse. Smooth sipper. Very much like the other good Barbados rums

Not usually a fan of oaky rums, but this one got me. Rather spicy aromas, which I like, and a middling body.

I would recommend against using this in mixers, as it's good enough to be drunk straight if you want.

Very nice dry rum, easy to drink. And a good value for money. I’d recommend it.

Another good one from Mount Gay
like the XO better but still a good
rum

Dry, spicy, woodI. I had it neat, I'm guessing it would be more enjoyable on the rocks. I don't recommend it unless selection is poor.

Another tasty rum. Smooth, with hints of vanilla and smoke. A great sipper. Recommended.
