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.

Hervorragender Rum um ihn mit Cola zu mischen. Nicht zu süß.
Gutes Preis Leistung Verhältnis
While in Barbados in 2011, my wife and I toured the Mount Gay distillery in Bridgetown and sampled some of their products including Mount Gay Eclipse and Mount Gay Extra Old, both of which we used as mix for rum punches. Upon our return home we purchased a bottle of each.
Fast forward to April 2017, the same two bottles are still in our liquor cabinet but are just about empty. Tonight I sipped on the remainder of both products to determine how the two fare as "sipper" Rum.
I must say that I was doubtful either of these two rums would qualify for decent sipping rums given the fact that 1) they were fairly inexpensive and 2) the bottles had been opened 6 years ago and both were less than 1/3 full.
I was pleasantly surprised with both samples of Mount Gay Eclipse and Mount Gay Extra Old. While the Mount Gay Eclipse rum is light and not as complex as the few aged rums I have sampled, it was nevertheless tasty. In my opinion Mount Gay Eclipse is a better mix than a sipping rum.
The second sample (Mount Gay Extra Old) was darker, tastier and more flavourful than the Eclipse and I really enjoyed its taste. Will without a doubt acquire a bottle of Mount Gay Extra Old in the near future. This rum makes an excellent mix but as a stand alone it is a respectable rum to drink neat. For this reason I will rate this rum as an 8.
Tunn men lättdrucken. Ok för priset men inget att köpa hem
A bit sweet. Smells wonderful. Taste good with coke. Havent had it straight. Not a favorite rum. But a hood one to try out!
I was pretty surprised that such a rum may be a decent sipper.
A nice base for a Rum & Coke, it's a good utility mixer.
On triomphe sans gloire. Le Mount Gay est le rhum que je trouvais le plus facilement quand je vivais à St Lucia. 10$ la bouteille et hop. Rien de particulier au goût, mais direct de la bouteille comme un pirate et aucun tambour dans la tête au réveil. Signe de qualité dans un rhum.
Not so smooth. Not so much vanilla I would expect. A bit rough on first sip. Medium nose

Quite sickly sweet smell.
"When sipped the rum does not exhibit much of these sickly sweet flavours. It’s just very heavy on the alcohol. ."
