Mount Gay 1703 BLACK BARREL Barbados Rum is a full-bodied Barbados rum with an alcohol content of 43 per cent, presented in a generous 1-litre bottle complete with a gift box. It is produced by Mount Gay, a long-established rum distillery in Barbados whose history dates back to 1703. For the Black Barrel, intense and aromatic rums are blended together, produced using two different distillation methods: both traditional column stills and double retort pot stills are employed. This combination allows lighter and particularly full-bodied distillates to be combined into a complex blend. The rum is then initially matured in ex-American whisky casks before being refined for a further six months in heavily charred ex-bourbon casks.


It is precisely this six-month finish in heavily charred bourbon casks that gives Mount Gay Black Barrel its name and enhances the influence of oak and toasted aromas on the blend. Mount Gay describes the result as “Robust & Bold”, thereby positioning this bottling as a particularly expressive variant within the range.The combination of pot-still and column-still rum, two-stage cask maturation and Mount Gay Rum’s long tradition makes this Black Barrel rum from Barbados a versatile premium bottling, perfect for enjoying neat or in robust rum cocktails.
