Mount Gay XO Barbados Reserve 43% 700ml information

Introducing the Mount Gay XO Barbados Reserve, a true masterpiece from the esteemed Mount Gay distillery in Barbados. This Extra Old (XO) rum is a blend of molasses-based rums distilled in both pot and column stills, then aged for a minimum of 15 years in American oak barrels, previously used for whiskey or Kentucky bourbon.

The XO Reserve Cask boasts an alluring amber hue and an enchanting aroma, featuring vanilla, woody richness, caramel sweetness, and hints of tobacco and oak. As you savor the first sip, prepare to indulge in a harmonious fusion of woody tones, warm vanilla, sumptuous caramel, and barrel nuances, all leading to a delightful hint of dark chocolate. This sophisticated rum offers the perfect balance between sweetness and dryness, with no added sugar, making it an exceptional sipper or a versatile base for a remarkable Rum Old Fashioned.

This new edition of Mount Gay XO is a rich blend of small-batch rum, matured in American Whiskey, Bourbon, and Cognac casks. The result is a beautifully round and complex liquid, with an aroma of vanilla, oak, and dry spice notes. On the palate, expect notes of salted caramel, baked fig, clove, and dark chocolate, all wrapped in a smooth, creamy, and long-lasting finish.

Mount Gay 1703 XO Rum is a true testament to the brand's commitment to crafting exceptional rums. This blend consists of a wide range of rums of various ages, some as old as 15 years, creating a symphony of flavors and aromas that captivate the senses. With its warm, golden appearance, and its enticing blend of vanilla, oak, and spice, Mount Gay XO Barbados Reserve is an exquisite choice for any rum connoisseur.
