    Great new addition from Mount gay. Absolutely fair price-performance ratio for 30€, certainly goes really well in some cocktails. Alcohol surprisingly well integrated. Great overall package what you get here!

    Good rum and great mixed with coke.

    The nose is quite musky. Wood and old cardboard mainly, not as horrid as it sounds, but admittedly not pleasing. There are also distant notes of banana and coal smoke. Charred wood and honey mainly present on the palate. Dark chocolate and leather also hanging around. The finish is a medium in length and keeps the charred wood and chocolate notes from the palate. Overall, it's not the best thing I've tried from Mount Gay. Very woody and serious. Was fun to try a more robust Eclipse though. I'd say its slightly better than the original.

    Reminds me a bit of Hamilton 151. Slight pepper on the finish. Not a lot of burn for such a high ABV. Nose is sugar, woody, alcohol. A bit of banana and other typical fruit. Really well balanced.
