Mount Gay XO Rum

Description

A small blend of carefully selected mature rums. A beautifully round and complex liquid. Aroma is a perfect balance of vanilla, oaky and dry spice notes. Tastes of salted caramel, baked fig and clove, dark chocolate. Round, smooth, and richly creamy body with a long finish.

This dry rum has a soft amber color and an enticingly warm caramel fragrance. On the tongue, it has a soft feel, with crème brûlée and banana flavors, braced up with lightly tannic black-tea notes and a baking spice finish. While a versatile choice for all manner of cocktails, the spice profile seems a natural for enlivening warm winter toddies.
