Mount Gay Extra Old XO Reserve Cask

Extraordinario Espectacular alto golpe alcohólico bien balanceado

My first Mount Gay rum. I find it a bit harsh and quite woody.

This is definitely a Bajan style rum. Heavy and yet well balanced. This release is better than the one from 2011.

A little high quality-price ratio, but for a sweet rum, it does quite well

Very tasty. Round flavor, a little sharp. Smells good

Rumfestival 20.09.2024 Bananenbrot, Vanille, getrocknete Früchte und Gewürze. Ausgewogen, handwerklich sehr gut gemacht. Wahrscheinlich so etwas wie das Herz der Mount Gay Range. ❤️🥰 Ich hatte ihn noch nie und war sehr positiv überrascht. Super Einstiegsrum mit Top PLV.

A very round and greedy rum. It lacks a bit of character and complexity, that's for sure, but it remains a very nice product. Between the flan and the crème brûlée.

A bit too dry at first, when rested it becomes more balanced and enjoyable. Not too complex though. This is a first bottle of rum i bought a few years ago.

Very pleasant. Barbados feeling. Loads of flavours. Not too boozy and not too sweet. Just a very nice sipper

My first time tasting this old bottling of the MG XO. 👃 provides sweet tones of vanilla, caramel, burnt sugar, oak barrels and banana & coconut very faintly. Palate is fairly sweet with caramel, vanilla, chocolate, espresso, oak barrel tones and very lovely touch of spicy notes such as black pepper but overall very subtle and great sipping rum. I like this old bottling very much. I will be comparing it with the new one as I have the bottle in stash too. I must say that if we are talking Barbados, MG is my brand to go to above them all.

This is a great starting place for someone looking at trying more expensive rums . Produced by mount gay I would never expect less then a clean rum that has lovely notes of caramel , suger and bannana.

This one a tried in a cool australian restaurant in frankfurt. Classic mount gay I would say, from the start to the end… Dried fruits, wood, roasted aromas, vanilla, coconut, tobacco and a bit spicy !

The rumiest of the Mountgay, more angular and alcoholic, sweeter on the finish.

Insgesamt sehr harmonisch, vielschichtig und sehr homogen. Der Alkohol ist zwischendrin kurz zu spüren, was aber nicht weiter negativ ins Gewicht fällt. Ein sehr schöner Rum für Einsteiger und Fortgeschrittene.

The taste has notes of salted caramel, baked figs, cloves and dark chocolate. The aftertaste is nicely round and soft
