Mount Gay Cognac Cask Expression Finish
Introducing the Mount Gay Rum Cognac Cask Expression, the eighth release in the Master Blender Collection. Finished for four years in Rémy Martin cognac casks crafted from Limousin oak, this limited-edition rum marries tropical maturity with delicate French oak character, resulting in a rich and opulent spirit.
This Cognac Cask Expression stands out for its exclusive barrel sourcing and extended island ageing that imparts notes of vanilla, leather and subtle spice, while Barbados’ warm climate intensifies the rum’s natural fruitiness. The result is a balanced yet deeply layered blend that unfolds over every sip and rewards contemplative tasting.
Production:
Distilled on traditional column stills to preserve fresh sugarcane character. Rested, then transferred to high-grade Limousin oak cognac casks from Rémy Martin. Four years of unheated, tropical ageing in Barbados harness daily temperature swings to amplify oak extraction and integrate fruity esters, creating a seamless fusion of rum and cognac lineage.
Pairing Suggestions:
Enjoy neat to appreciate its full complexity. It also pairs beautifully with dark chocolate truffles or a crème brûlée topped with flamed orange zest. For a savoury contrast, serve alongside aged gouda or lightly charred pork belly glazed with cassis reduction.
Tasting Note:
The nose offers red stone fruits, cherry and leather, with bright orange zest and warm vanilla. On the palate, cherry and salted caramel mingle with oak spice and brown sugar, leading to a golden-hued, opulent finish that lingers on soft leather and fruit nuances.
