The Mount Gay Origin Series No.2 Copper Still VS Pot Still 2x Bottle 350ml set is a unique offering from the renowned Mount Gay distillery. This exclusive set showcases the distinct impact of different distillation methods on the rum's aromatic profile. Included are two 350ml bottles of Barbadian rum, one distilled in a traditional copper column still and the other in a copper pot still. Both are aged for 6 years and bottled at 43% ABV, with no added sugar or additives, ensuring a pure and authentic rum experience.
The Copper Column bottle features a sophisticated aroma with notes of tropical fruits, vanilla, oak spices, and a hint of smoky charred wood. Its palate reveals a creamy oak flavor accompanied by passion fruit, cinnamon, and oak spices, leading to a short finish with traces of mango puree. On the other hand, the Copper Pot bottle presents a funkier profile with an enticing aroma of herbal notes, cola, tropical fruits, white chocolate, and pepper. Its taste is dominated by flavors of passion fruit, lime zest, and spice, culminating in a long, spicy finish with hints of cola.
Reviewers have emphasized that blending the two rums in a 1:1 ratio creates a harmonious balance of sweetness and bold flavors. This set offers a fascinating exploration for rum enthusiasts to appreciate the nuances of different distillation techniques and experiment with their own unique blends.
