Mount Gay Exceptionally Aged 25 Year Rum

Mount Gay Exceptionally Aged 25 Year Rum comes from Barbados and the world's oldest continuously operating rum distillery, with roots reaching back to 1703. This expression spent a quarter century maturing in the island's tropical climate, where the heat and humidity work on the cask far faster than in cooler latitudes, concentrating the rum into something far removed from its younger siblings. It arrives in the US through Rémy Cointreau, Mount Gay's parent house.

Twenty-five years in oak gives this rum remarkable depth: layers of toffee, dried fruit, and dark chocolate ride over the ripe banana and vanilla character that runs through the Mount Gay range, with polished oak and warm baking spice carrying into a long, slow finish. It is a rum built for unhurried sipping rather than mixing.

Ultra-aged Barbados rum at this age rarely surfaces, which makes this a natural centerpiece for a rum collection or a serious gift for the whiskey drinker ready to cross over. Pair it with the other aged rums and sipping spirits in the Liquor Geeks collection to build out a tasting flight. Ships to most US states. Adult-signature required at delivery.
