"An opulent blend of the finest spirits aged for 8 to 15 years. Where Eclipse is floral and fruity, Extra Old blends significantly older barrels of mainly double pot distillates that have rounded these crisper notes into a subtler balance. It exudes the finesse that only time can bring and offers a true taste of paradise from the rum that invented rum." - Mount Gays Website

    Bready, clove, musty and fruity. Molasses.

    Medium mouth feel. Sweet honey, maple and clove. Buttered popcorn and guava. Really interesting, sort of all over the place.

  • Finish:

    Medium length, sweet, buttery, maple and tobacco.

    Not super complex but pleasant, interesting and carries a good body.
