WHAT: Mount Gay Eclipse Black Spiced Rum Rating: NNNN
WHERE: Barbados
WHY: During Caribana – sorry, I mean the Caribbean Carnival – the rum will flow, much of it overproof and spiced, two categories that don’t usually shine. But now that I’ve gone Black… the spicing is subtle the 50 per cent alcohol isn’t. Killer in cocktails and punches but also brilliant with dessert or on the rocks.
PRICE: 750 ml/$37.95
AVAILABILITY: At most liquor stores (product #271734)
