Mount Gay has been crafting rich and flavourful rums on the Northern tipo of Barbados for over 300 years. For the sixth release of the Master Blender Collection, Mount Gay Master Blender Trudiann Branker crafted an exclusive blend with some of the oldest rum stocks in the Mount Gay bonds. This small batch rum is created in the traditional Mount Gay house style of blending together pot and column still rums. These had been aged in ex-American whiskey casks for 20 years in Barbados, where both the heat and humidity accentuate the interaction with the casks. This tropical aging process created deeply aromatic flavours of burnt oak and toasted vanilla. To this matured spirit, Trudiann added a new layer of aromatic intricacy by finishing the blend for one additional year in Pedro Ximienez Sherry wine casks. Originating from the Southern regions of Spain, Pedro Ximenez Sherry is a dessert wine offering intense sweetness, created from grapes ripened under the strong Spanish sun. Finishing this exclusive blend in these wine casks adds deep roundness to the complex aged spirit, and aromas of stewed fruits, dark cherry and plum, with salted nutty notes.
