Lunched in 1992, Mount Gay Extra Old is blended from pot and column distilled rums aged 8-12 years. In Barbados, the locals refer to this by its nickname...
Wonderful sipping rum. I have been looking for a new rum to replace Kirk and Sweeney as they have changed their blend. I have tried others, but find they have too much added sugar. This is perfect, but you must be a rum drinker. There are wonderful burnt sugar and tropic fragrances, but the product is wonderfully dry and akin to a sweeter cognac. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good sipping rum.
