Mount Gay Extra Old Rum, 86 Proof (43% alcohol), possesses a rich deep color, which is the result of the special craftsmanship of the Master Blender by blending of 15 - 17 year old oak-aged single distilled rum and special Mount Gay double distilled rum. This rum is a definite take out the snifter glass and swirl, savor the deep rich burnished color, and appreciate the aromatic nutty nose and 300 years of experience. This exceptionally smooth rich rum with a taste of caramel, and a long smooth finish, is not one that you will want to mix in a cocktail, although you could. It is the recipient of many awards including the 2003 Silver Medal at the International Spirits Challenge, and a high quality trophy in 2002 from Monde Selection after winning 3 Gold and 3 Grand Gold awards consecutively. It won its sixth Grand Gold award in 2003. Liquor
