Expect toasted vanilla, caramel and oak on the nose with dried apricot, baking spice and orange zest. The palate brings butterscotch, banana, roasted nuts and dark chocolate, finishing long and warm with toasted oak.
Mount Gay uses a higher share of double pot still rum in Black Barrel, which gives it a fuller body and more spice.
A great choice for rum drinkers who enjoy oak and spice, and for bourbon fans who want to try a Caribbean rum.
