Valinch & Mallet Mount Gay The Spirit of Art Saint Michael 2001 22yr 51,1%
The Spirit of Art Saint Michael rum is a high-quality selection from the Mount Gay distillery, aged for 22 years. Recognized for its intense, well-balanced ABV and fruity flavors, it offers complex tasting notes of warm cinnamon, woody textures, minerals, and hints of banana. Subtle undertones of nutty marzipan and lemon accompany the aroma, creating an inviting nose. Despite its age, the wood is seldom dominant, instead, it harmonizes with the other flavors for a well-rounded experience. The rum maintains its distinct profile even after years of aging. This rum is appreciated for drawing admirable curtains in the glass and leaves a delightful scent of chocolate and pineapple in an empty glass. Its good value for price consolidates it as a top pick.

“#4121 First off, price to quality is pretty good in my mind. Intense and fruity with a well balanced ABV. Despite the age the wood isn't dominant but rather well balanced with the other flavours. Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass is very nice and I can pick up some chocolate and pineapple.”

“The fact remains that Mount Gay is not mine. This is not a bad product in itself, but fails to excite me. The profile remains well recognizable even with higher storage time and would probably have benefited from a finish, at least to pick me up more would have been interesting some heavy fruit. After all, despite 22 years balanced at the wood impact, even if some bitterness is naturally recognizable.”

“Very good, round, somewhat astringent Mount Gay.”
