Mount Gay Rum XO The Peat Smoke Expression

Wine Enthusiast 93 points - TOP 100 SPIRITS OF 2019 - This unique bottling starts with pot-stilled rums aged eight to 15 years in American oak barrels, then matured for an additional 6 months in casks that previously held peated Islay whiskey. Look for a rich maple scent and a palate with caramel and vanilla flavors, with the peat emerging on the finish. Add water or ice to tame the fiery alcohol in this overproof rum.December/2019
