Description
Mount Gay Eclipse in the 1.75L — the flagship of the world’s oldest rum distillery, est. 1703.
Barbados has made rum at Mount Gay longer than anywhere on earth, and Eclipse is its golden standard: a heritage blend of pot and column still rums matured in American whiskey casks. Bright, balanced, and endlessly mixable at 80 proof, the handle keeps rum punches and dark and stormys flowing with three centuries of pedigree.
Tasting Notes
Golden banana, vanilla, and warm oak with subtle smoke; smooth, balanced finish. Superb in punches or with ginger beer.
