Tasting Notes by The Whisky Exchange
Nose: Stacks of fruit: raisins, prunes and sultanas with touches of banana and pineapple.
Palate: The fruit continues on the palate, accompanied by dark spice and a touch of char.
Finish: Long and spicy.

Very good

Excellent rum; smooth and flavoursome. Not as sweet as some, but then it’s not full of added sugar and flavours like Diplomatico.
-
Outstanding paired with a Trinidad Topes limitada cigar
-
very smooth and lovely tasting drink
-
One of the best golden rums about. Five star.

MGXO is not as sweet as Zacapa 23 or Diplomatico Reserva ( green bottle) But is very balanced and quite elegant. It is a sipper, I do prefer Arcan Rum from Mauritius ( this is so special,bold flavour that stays elegant and special. Mount Gay XO is a very balance medium or more sweet Rum.

Agree with previous reviewers: rich, smooth and delicious. Loved the St Nicholas Abbey 12 year old rum also; exceptionally smooth

A rum to savour bringing back memories of the Lime Grove bar in Barbados.
-
Outstanding rum. A classic. The sophistication of whiskey with the soothing flavor of a pure rum.
-
Enjoyed this over two holidays in Barbados. Brought some back and it tastes almost as good in the UK (just the sun, smiles and reggae missing). A smooth rum which can be sipped or mixed (diet coke or ginger both work well).
