Deze smaakt eerder naar een cognac of een whisky. Voor mezelf niet zacht genoeg.Twee glaasjes geprobeerd en weggeven.

good smooth rum better then Black Bartell version, for mé little bit to dry, i prefer sweeter rums

I have mixed feelings about this one. It is the absolutely non sweetest rum I have ever tried. Maybe the lack of sugar is nice, it makes it taste strong, could be smoother sincerely. Smells very good, but drinking straight is difficult for me. As a mixer it is too expensive and sincerely others perform better mixing. Definitely a rum for sipping for people who don't like sweet at all.

Sadly, I have not found nothing special in this rum. Yes, it is a good one, but easy to forget.

I’m not a massive neat rum drinker so I do mix this however its my current favourite for Dark and Stormys, mixed with Saxbys Ginger Beer, some butters and a slice of lime.

This drink needs a smooth rum to work and Mount Gay XO delivers 100%. Great smooth, Rich (but not overly so) flavour and I have demolished a bottle with a couple of friends way quicker than expected and need to buy a refill. A must for any rum drinker

Much more gentle than its smaller brother. Not very sweet and more gentle - no smokiness. Nice vanilla and even more noticeable in long end

another good tip for smooth, woody but sweet, tropical fruity rum

I picked this up late at night from somewhere that didnt have a very good rum selection so I figured I'd try it. It is definitely better than a cheaper rum, being that you can sip it without problem but it definitely has a harsh bite, and not very sweet.

Toured the distillery two years ago. Tried this product and am now a big fan. Recently purchased the 1703 Old cask. Same flavor profile but for the value you can't beat the XO,
