About
Mount Gay Eclipse is named after the 1910 total solar eclipse that was visible from Barbados. It is a blend of rums distilled in traditional copper pot and column stills, then matured in ex-American whiskey casks. Eclipse is the embodiment of the Mount Gay style with notes of fresh vanilla, almond, ripe banana and dark chocolate. It is a crisp and aromatic rum, perfect for classic cocktails.

Best Rum EVER!!
What can I say, except this rum is the best! Straight, over the rocks, or in cocktails - it has a slight sweetness to it, and goes well in Mojitos, with some seltzer and lime - a Mint Julep whatever!!!

Packs a flavor and smoothness that transports you to the ...
Mount Gay Barabdos Rum has been long known as a smooth and delicious rum by reviews worldwide, and it's reputation definitely proceeds itself. The smell of the rum alone invokes scents of vanilla, oak and molasses with just a hint of pepper, cinnamon and other spices as well. The taste of the rum itself is bold but not overpowering and bears notes that match the smell, namely vanilla,oak, pepper and molasses. This rum can be drank straight and would pair well on the rocks with a nice cigar. It can be used in a mixer for rum based cocktails and would work nice in a Hurricane or Sweet & Sour. The flavor did not mesh well with Cola or other soft drinks and juices however, so whatever you mix in will be better if it is non carbonated in my opinion. Overall a delicious and relaxing drink to wind down the night with.
