Let’s talk about Rhum Mount Gilboa 70cl

More questions

Mount Gilboa Rum is one of the hidden gems of Barbados, produced in small quantities at the historic Mount Gay distillery. This super premium rum stands out for its entirely artisanal distillation process, using copper stills and a triple distillation technique, which gives the product unparalleled purity and aromatic complexity.

This rum exhibits a bright amber color, with golden tones that shimmer in the light. On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of vanilla, honey, stewed fruit, and subtle notes of toasted spices such as nutmeg and clove. On the palate, Mount Gilboa offers a velvety and rich texture, with a perfect balance between sweetness and subtle spiciness, enriched by hints of leather, tobacco, and buttery caramel.

Ideal for enjoying neat, on the rocks, or as a base for sophisticated cocktails, Mount Gilboa Rum is an excellent choice for connoisseurs seeking a rum with character and depth. This rum not only celebrates the distillation tradition of Barbados but also represents a true sensory journey into the rich and enveloping flavors of the Caribbean.

The story
The name "Mount Gilboa" recalls the historic toponym of the company now known as Mount Gay; from the 2000s it was used as a designation for a line of rums produced in Barbados, connected to the Ward family and characterized by small batches. Some stocks were allocated to special bottlings and marketed in numbered editions (e.g. bottles intended for distributors/independent bottlers).
Distillation
Triple distillation (for the known Mount Gilboa expressions) in copper pot stills (double-retort); 100% pot-still production for the cited versions.
Ageing
Tropical climate ageing; casks vary depending on the bottling (e.g. ex-bourbon, in some cases ex-French brandy).
