This limited edition release, selected and bottled by Velier, showcases the extraordinary character of a 14-year-old molasses-based rum with a potent 60% ABV.

“Ah damn, if only there were not this alcoholic note in particular and we would have here a fantastic forest in the glass. On the palate I got some unripe fruit that is slightly tart, I think currant. The finish is joined by bitter orange and a tiny bit of coconut. Tip: Let breathe very long so that the alcohol evaporates somewhat. Otherwise, a tasty treat.”

“A pretty OK Mount Gay release. Nice and fruity with spices and wood. The ABV could have been better integrated, but it's not off by a lot. A very long and warm finish and the empty glass is nice. Price to quality is so so.”

“One of the better Mount Gay rums I know - but the profile remains too insignificant for me. Alcohol integration seems to be a constant challenge of the distillates, moreover, the flavor spectrum remains overall quite close together. Smoky notes, oak, spices - here for a change with some tropical fruit freshness. Can not inspire me, unfortunately.”
