Mount Gay Eclipse
Solid everyday mixer: light vanilla, caramel and young oak with some alcohol bite. Reliable value for cocktails, less exciting as a neat sipper for experienced palates.
Those new to rum or stocking a bar who want an inexpensive, easy Mount Gay option for cola, daiquiris and simple mixed drinks with familiar vanilla-caramel notes.

How does this rum taste?
Simple, budget-friendly everyday mixer
If you want a cheap, honest Mount Gay for cocktails rather than a serious sipper, this fits. If you already enjoy Black Barrel or XO, look there instead for neat pours.
Sippers seeking depth, long aging or rich complexity, and anyone sensitive to noticeable alcohol bite even at 40% ABV.
