Mount Gay Black Barrel Rum

Type : Rum
ABV : 86
Producer : Mount Gay Rum Distilleries
Country : Barbados
Size : 750ml
Description :

Released in the UK in 2014, the Mount Gay Black Barrel rum is made from single column and double pot distilled rum, though using a higher proportion of double pot distillates than their other expressions. It is also finished in heavily charred bourbon barrels before being bottled.

Nose: Richly warming notes of plump sultanas, cracked black pepper and creamy vanilla from the bourbon barrel finish.

Palate: Toasty. Deeply spicy, with plenty of cinnamon. A hint of liquorice and more vanilla.

Finish: A long, balanced finish, drifting between sweet and spice.

Overall: A fab step up from the standard Mount Gay rum.
