Mount Gay Select Blend of Matured Rums (TWE Exclusive)
Vanilla and creme brulee lead, with oak, raisin and baking spice underneath and a fruity lift several tasters kept coming back to. Cask strength at 54%, so give it air — one member found it hot straight from a fresh bottle, then "easy sipping" once it opened up. A refined, dry Barbados sipper in the Foursquare/Mount Gay XO mold.
The community says- Fruity and refined
- Vanilla and dried fruit
- Hot when just opened

How does Mount Gay Select Blend of Matured Rums (TWE Exclusive) taste?
Aggregated from 22 community reviews.
Fruity, dry Barbados cask-strength sipper Well-liked as a fruity, well-refined Barbados sipper — vanilla, oak and dried fruit. Not one to mix, and it needs a few minutes to shed the alcohol heat.
Fans of dry Barbados rum like Foursquare, R.L. Seale's and Mount Gay XO

Review by Roberto Bessa Ferreira
Tolle easy sipping Mount Gay, very fruity and vicious 😋😋😋
Review by Martin Ekrt
So I'm not too drunk on MG. The smell reminds me of a lighter version of FS. Vanilla, coconut, coffee and praline. The taste is beautifully rounded, smooth. Coconut, kava, vanilla, cinnamon and a whiskey touch. Smooth transition to a medium-long finish. A fine piece.
Review by Jack M
Tasty Mount Gay. Classic profile and well refined. Vanilla, Creme Brulee, oak, dried fruit and spices.
Review by Martin Švojgr
I tasted right after pouring a freshly opened bottle and it was a mistake. Both in aroma and taste terribly alcoholic. A second sip after 10 minutes and the alcoholiness disappeared. There remains earthiness, spiciness, tobacco, wood, some bitterness but including a trace of sweet vanilla on the finish. Third sip even better, nice spiciness.

Read full review →Nice! This is a complex and very rewarding sipping rum. I wouldn't even think about mixing this one. Fans of rums such as R L Seale's, Mount Gay XO and the more recent Foursquare Exceptional Cask 2004 and 2005 rums will be in heaven with this one. More of this...
