Mount Gay Eclipse Heritage Blend Rum - 750ml Bottle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The smell of the rum alone invokes scents of vanilla, oak and molasses with just a hint of pepper, cinnamon and other spices as well, The taste of the rum itself is bold, but not overpowering and bears notes that match the smell, namely vanilla,oak, pepper and molasses. This rum can be drank straight and would pair well on the rocks. It can be used in a mixer for rum based cocktails and would work nice in a hurricane or sweet & and sour. The flavor did not mix well with Cola or other soft drinks and juices, however, so whatever you mix in will be better if it is non carbonated, in my opinion. Overall, it was a delicious and relaxing drink to wind down after a long day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m not the biggest rum fan but I found myself enjoying this bottle quite a bit. It had a great vanilla and caramel taste to it. I mixed it with some vanilla cherry coke and created a nice delicious drink that I’ll be having again soon.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the orange aroma, and flavor profile of this rum. Packaged in simple bottle that lets the rum speak for itself. Like Espolon does for tequilas, Mount Gay knocks it out of the park for value and taste at a great price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very smooth rum. Excellent rum for the price and very drinkable. You can take shots of it or I mixed it with Dr Pepper since I didn’t have coke on hand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Mount Gay Eclipse Heritage Rum was a smooth, flavorful rum that really impressed me with its balance and drinkability. The aroma has hints of vanilla and banana with a touch of oak, and the taste follows through with warm notes of caramel, light spice, and tropical fruit. It's not overly sweet, which I appreciate, and it finishes clean with just enough depth to enjoy neat or in a cocktail. For the price, it’s a great value and definitely a rum I’ll keep stocked in my bar.

Not to mention the bottle is great, I love that it can lay flat without rolling around - big plus for storing in the fridge.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had an absolute perfect night out in the backyard with this Mount Gay rum. It was so smooth and fragrant - I absolutely loved it. I can’t wait for another nice night to give it another try.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bold, spicy, and aromatic, this dark rum packs a lot of punch for its low price. Great blend of fruit, vanilla, and spice. Perfect rum to use for hot toddys.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The aroma was nice and the price wasn’t too bad either for a mixer drink. The flavor profile I enjoyed and the different mixers i can put in the drink was nice as well! I like that packaging of the bottle too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tried Mount Gay Eclipse Heritage Rum, and I gotta say—it’s a solid choice, especially for the price. Right off the bat, the color is a nice golden amber, looks great in the glass. On the nose, it’s got a warm, inviting smell—vanilla, caramel, a little bit of fruit (like banana and maybe some apricot), plus a hint of oak. You can tell it spent some time in barrels. Taste-wise, it’s smooth and slightly sweet, with those same vanilla and caramel notes coming through. There’s a bit of spice, but nothing too intense. You also get a touch of smokiness from the oak, which adds some nice depth. The finish is medium-length—lingers just enough with a bit of warmth and oakiness, but doesn’t overstay its welcome. Overall, this is a great everyday rum. Super easy to sip on its own, but honestly, it really shines in cocktails. Makes a killer rum punch or daiquiri. Definitely worth keeping on the shelf!
