    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members praise this 22-year Mount Gay for its bold woody-spicy profile and refreshing mint/menthol lift. Expect orange peel, caramel and herbal aromas, then dried fruit, firm oak and a hint of smoke on a long finish. Bottled at 56.5% cask strength and limited to 304 bottles, it’s well regarded for character and value—44 community reviews mark it as a rising favorite, though some find wood and anise assertive.

    This is a nice rum especially at the price. The age is very present in the profile as the wood takes the front seat along some fruity and spice notes. Nice warm/spicy on the palate and I like the smoky wood it serves your palate and finish.

    I just don't get along with the 2000 bmmg Mark. Alcohol absolutely not well integrated, sourly smoky and tobacco-heavy and much too woody. Sorry but this is for me a failure.

    The long storage time is reflected in the aroma profile: the rum is good on the wood with a little smoke. Very spicy with strong ethereal notes of mint, a little acidic, no significant sweetness. A special marque that divides tastes. Not my favorite Mount Gay, but a solid rum. Price: 95 euros per 0.5 liters.

    Solid Mount Gay, which has a little too much anise for me personally. Reminds through the herbaceous mint something of Clarendon.
