Eclipse
Eclipse is the reference for character, body and aroma by which our Master Blender Allen Smith uses to blend every variety of Mount Gay Rum. For many rum aficionados Eclipse is also the reference by which all rum should be measured. Eclipse has a brilliant golden amber colour and a luxuriously complex aroma.
| Aromas | Distinctive floral and fruity notes of apricot and banana, with hints of vanilla |
| Taste | Subtle smokiness imparted by the toasted Kentucky oak barrels in which the rum is aged |
| Body | Warm, medium body with a bright finish |
