Mount Gay Black Barrel

The nose is very good for a starter rum. Oak, tobacco, fruit and then polish. Very well balanced.In the mouth then disappointment. Woody, one dimensional and thin. The alcohol stings.As I said, a good introduction to unsweetened rum.

Solo strong alcohol perceptible. A rum that tastes more like whiskey than rum. I don't like whiskey, but it goes well with an old fashioned drink. Use translate 😅

All my Tastings and Scores are purely based on “Rums under £50”. I rarely look at Rums over £50 for my YouTube.

Not as developed as I was hoping for, you really need to struggle to get anything beside the smoky and peppery flavors. There is something funky on the nose I can best describe as sweaty gym clothes.

Not too sweet and not too dry, very good balance. A real rum

Good Mount Gay, where you can clearly taste the storage in bourbon barrels. In its complexity not as good as the big brother XO, but still clearly one of the better rums.

Ako veľmi jemná, mladšia a sladsia (v závere) whisky, za tie prachy super, ale slabšia komplexnosť ako XO, jemne stipnutie na záver, na druhý pokus veľmi mi to zachutilo, dlhé, štipľavé ale sladké, na tretí pokus zvyšujeme z 8.2 na 8.4, divný deň (nedeľa 10.3.) nejak mám inak nastavene chute. Vážne v chuti taká whiskova sladkosť, ale veľmi pitne

In the smell very nice. Very strongly reminiscent of Spanish style. Then, unfortunately, thin on the palate. Hardly any complexity. Only light caramel vanilla tones with strong wood

very good stuff

After years, I remember that I didn't like it as much back then as I do today. Strong vanilla, initial roasted aromas and some fruit on the nose. On the palate, there are distinctive roasted and flamed wood aromas. Not usually my cup of tea, but very harmonious here. For sipping and mixing. . 04.2024 I find my previous impression confirmed. However, I wouldn't buy it again today.

Pretty good for the price. The nose feels like a good Bourbon, delicate and fruity aroma, and some vanilla. The tasting is a little bit alcoholic but not overpowering, with some vanilla and caramel. Add a touch of water and this is where it shines, bringing some banana flavor.

A rum in puberty with a very good PLV

C green tea overtone, a little alcohol burn. R Reliable,easy drinking. Great with coke too.

Smell 7/10 Taste 6,5/10 Aftertaste 6/10 Image 8/10 (info about rum, bottle, carton-box, sugar free, marketing....) Total impression 7,5/10 ------------------ BTL Ratio Price/quality 👍👍👍 BTL II No added sugar 👍

Revisiting after several years (5+) and it is a trip to the past. Very distinctive & characteristic sweet, fruity 👃. Still great on the 👅, still 🍌 and I mean a proper ripe banana. Green apple, dark chocolate, vanilla with touch of 🥥 & caramel, subtle earthy notes with hint of tobacco & charred barrel. Great neat sipping rum. Medium long finish. I am realizing that I did not appreciate this rum enough back then.
