Five rums we're drinking today for National Rum Day: cocktails tiki nationalrumday
Mount Gay made some waves back in the spring when they announced that two of the brand’s core expressions, Black Barrel and Mount Gay XO, would be reformulated under the watchful eye of new Master Blender Trudiann Branker. For Black Barrel, a brand that has always been defined by receiving extra aging in “deeply charred bourbon casks,” the time of its secondary aging was significantly increased, from four weeks to six months.
On the nose, this is a rich Bajan rum redolent in gingerbread, cloves and ripe banana, along with molasses richness and a distinct impression of charred oak. Vanilla bean explodes on the palate, with unctuous flavors of gingerbread, brown sugar and caramelized plantains. It leads into an oak-forward, roasty finish, with moderate residual sweetness, and a kiss of smoke. It’s absolutely lovely to drink neat, but I simultaneously can’t wait to whip up a daiquiri with it just to see how it does.
I can only say that should you be able to lay hands on this bottle, be careful when using it to mix cocktails. It might just get you in trouble.Denizen is a rum buyer and blender; a company that doesn’t operate a distillery but instead acquires a wide range of rums from all over and then blends them in the Netherlands, where rum has historic roots reaching back as far as the golden age of Caribbean exploration and piracy.
